Instituto de Biomecánica (IBV) has just completed the study on the modern-day measurements of the Spanish male population.

These measurements round off the data acquired about the female population and favor the provision of services aimed at improving the sizing of clothes so that they fit consumers better.

This study, financed by the European Commission through the     SizingSUDOE project, has been complemented by the publication of two Anthropometric Notebooks on the male and female population that contain the current measurements of the Spanish population, which are intended for the textile, fashion and clothing industry.

Insoles customized using a smartphone

 

 

The Instituto de Biomecánica de Valencia (IBV) has developed SUNfeet, completely customized comfort insoles based on cutting-edge technology which combines a precise system for capturing the shape of the foot which can be used on any smartphone, with a 3-D printing manufacturing process. The result is exclusive, customized insoles, which improve the comfort of footwear while reducing fatigue and pain in the feet.

The Instituto de Biomecánica de Valencia (IBV) and KELME have developed a prototype running shoe with a built-in electronic device which enables runners to better plan their training and prevent possible injuries during sports activities. The RUNSAFER system offers real-time information on the runner's biomechanical and physiological parameters. Information on the runner’s running pattern is transmitted wirelessly to their mobile phone while training. A cellular phone app informs the runner in real-time of their planned training session and objectives achieved, suggesting modifications to the activity to alter the biomechanical pattern and thus prevent injury. After each session, the runner can download all the information recorded from a website. Through this site, they can generate training plans, recommendations and monitor improvements made to the training session itself.
