[Purpose] The aim of this study was to determine whether insoles change standing balance on the ground in normal and flat-footed subjects. [Subjects] Twenty subjects with flatfeet and 20 subjects with normal feet were included in this study. [Methods] Body sway was evaluated based on the center of pressure while subjects stood on the ground. Body sway was measured during upright standing with the feet 10 cm apart for 30 seconds. The total locus length and the area of body sway were then measured using a zebris system. Measurements were made under three sets of conditions: using BMZ insoles, which supported the cuboid; using Superfeet insoles, which supported the medial longitudinal arch; and with no insoles. [Results] The 3 insole conditions were compared. On level ground, the total locus length for the Superfeet insole was significantly less than those for the BMZ insole and no insole. [Conclusion] On level ground, Superfeet feet insoles were effective in stabilizing standing balance in both flat-footed and normal-footed subjects.

RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) system is expected to serve as the distribution management system of the alternative to bar-codes in recent years. If objects storage location detection equipment with RFID technology is introduced in the distribution management system, work efficiency and safety improvement are predicted. The system that can identify massed RF-tags has already been proposed, though it is required to mounting dedicated tags. On the other hand, the massed RF-tag location detection system which can use the ordinary and low-priced tag is proposed in this report.
