Foot Pressure Distribution Diagrams for Orthotic and Shoe Design #1940194 (License: Personal Use)

Diagram 437 shows a lateral view of the foot with a dashed midline indicating ideal weight-bearing alignment, while diagram 438 presents a plantar view highlighting medial and lateral pressure zones and the longitudinal arch. These schematic illustrations are foundational in gait analysis, orthotic prescription, and ergonomic footwear development to assess pronation/supination and load distribution.

Used in medical, podiatric, and footwear design contexts-especially in educational materials, clinical assessments, orthotic labs, and product development documentation-to visualize foot biomechanics and guide corrective interventions.
