N2 - A novel pressure sensor is presented in this work. The proposed sensor is designed to be incorporated into the insole for assessing plantar pressure. This system employs dielectric resonator antennas and monitors shifts in the resonance frequency of the antennas due to the applied pressure. The collected data can be used to map plantar pressure across various regions, conduct analysis, and support users in monitoring their foot problems or improving their health condition. Simulation results for the proof of concept are provided in the paper.
