Abstract

The invention relates to a sensor device and a method for generating signals indicating the motor activity and the motor co-ordination of the musculature of a person walking. The invention especially relates to the problems relating to the generation of signals for the analysis and evaluation of the walking kinematics of a person from a sports medicine, ergonomic or therapeutic point of view. The aim of the invention is to provide solutions which enable the kinematics of a person to be described and evaluated in a highly informative manner. To this end, a sensor structure is used to generate signals indicating the kinematics of a person, said sensor structure comprising a plurality of sensor devices which are used as such to supply signals indicating the local pressure or force exerted by a foot at a plurality of measuring points over a surface to which a foot is applied. In this way, information about the temporal variations of the foot surface pressure distribution can be recorded advantageously in real time as a person is moving along.
