The sensor plate is a critical component designed to accurately measure foot pressure distribution in neurological patients. It contains a high-resolution grid of pressure sensors that capture real-time data on gait and weight distribution. This information aids in foot diagnostics and rehabilitation planning by identifying abnormalities in foot mechanics, helping clinicians develop targeted treatment strategies. The sensor plate's reliability ensures consistent, repeatable measurements essential for monitoring patient progress and therapy outcomes. A comparative experimental design was employed, involving 50 participants divided into two groups: a trial group (n=25) where sensor plates were utilized for assessment and rehabilitation, and a control group (n=25) where traditional rehabilitation methods were used without sensor plates. Participants were assessed pre- and post-intervention over 12 weeks, and the data were analyzed using paired and independent t-tests. Results revealed a statistically significant improvement in FFI scores in the trial group compared to the control group (p < 0.05), demonstrating the efficacy of sensor plates in enhancing mobility and functional outcomes. This study highlights the importance of integrating advanced technologies like sensor plates into rehabilitation programs to improve patient outcomes. The findings support the adoption of sensor plates in clinical practice, offering a more precise and effective approach to neurological rehabilitation. Further research with larger sample sizes and diverse populations is recommended to validate these findings and expand the applicability of sensor-based technologies.
