A device for monitoring human feet can include: a transmissive sheet configured to bear at least 90 kg supported at a height of no more than 23 cm, and a foot image capture system below the sheet. An optical image sensor can capture a field of view including at least 250 cmof the surface of the sheet. The device can have a central reflective element positioned below the sheet directly above the sensor and two outer mirrors such that two fields of view at least 250 cmeach can be focused onto the sensor by a lens. Foot sole images can be automatically captured when a patient stands on the device. Images can be transmitted to a database and associated with the patient by analyzing the images for a unique predetermined metric.

System and method for continuous monitoring of a human foot

The present invention pertains to a device and method for imaging of a human foot including a transmissive sheet with an upper surface configured to accommodate a sole of the foot, a light source positioned below the sheet for emitting light toward the sheet, and an optical path controller in the sheet or coupled to the sheet for altering a path of the light causing internal reflection of the light toward a predetermined region of the foot. The image can be analyzed for a predetermined characteristic associated with a human patient, and determination made whether the characteristic in the image matches the patient. Brightness in the image can be analyzed for tissue moisture information.
