21. Research Question
How can we collect and visualize
lower body movements to support
physiotherapists during video
consultations?

33. Increase in Confidence
Without SoPhy, I may not be able to pick up
things just from video. Like I thought, Ooh!
that foot looks tilted outside, but then
whether it has any relation with their weight
distribution or not, I cant tell just from the
video. (P2)
Exercises with SoPhy without SoPhy

35. Fewer Repetitions of Exercises
Over video, I can see the person only from
one direction. [...] The sock system provides
me this detailed information irrespective of
how the person is standing or sitting. I did not
ask the patient to turn backwards or sideways
when I had the sock data - the system was
already doing it for me. (P3)

36. Deeper Insights on Weight Distribution
Its always challenging to understand weight
bearing because the pressure points are not
visible. Its easy in cases when the person is
putting more weight on one foot than other.
But it is difficult to understand how the
pressure is distributed across the foot, is it on
the heels, or on the balls. (P8)
