There are papers about foot pods:

And especially also papers about the Stryd foot pod:

And there is a paper from

about accuracy and injury prevention:
But is there a paper among those which strikes you? What stroke us personally the most is that for our scientific home lab treadmill devices are to most interesting devices. They can be used for scientific and therapeutic applications and there are many devices on the market which cost up to 24 000 USD among those we studied.
But are these devices not too expensive and can they not be optimized for low-cost high-quality? On YouTube and WordPress we haven t found yet what we are looking for regarding this topic. And does it make any sense to study devices from which we do not find any papers wich strike us on YouTube and WordPress where scientists as Rob ter Horst study the step counting accuracy of Apple watches?
It is helpful to us personally that Rob compares step counting accuracy of different step counters? Rob shows us that these devcies seem to be generally close to each other as far as accuracy is concerned. Is there more about those than an accelerometer and some algorithms which are freely available everywhere? But what kind science can with those devices? Eventually the analysis of walking meditation. But are not the most interesting devices those which are developed and used by really serious athletes? There are a lot of developements in this field, but is there one a the level of PiEEG which is opimized for low-cost hiqh quality?
On the other hand cannot costs strongly be opimized for a treadmill which can be used in our home lab?
Treadmills allow a very accurate data analysis for instance to analyse data of walking meditation activities, and they are also used for scientific and medical applications.
