This Master Thesis contains the first stages of the development process of a system to study human gait presenting a final concepts. Moreover, the Master Thesis covers the vibration analysis of a real prototype based on the concepts presented.
For the development of this project, there were almost no restrictions or guidelines.
Hence, it was necessary a previous process of investigation and research before in
order to start the design part, which includes user identification, benchmarking and identification of the stakeholders needs.
The design process has been systematic and based on several theories which lead to a
well-based and sound proposal. Furthermore the design of a real prototype has given
the chance to make an improvement over the first concept, working on another loop
of design and therefore refine the solution.
