A method for detecting foot and lower limb health changes includes collecting a first and second temperature reading at each time point over a time window, from a first and second plantar location on a user's body. The method further includes determining a temperature offset and applying the temperature offset to the first and second series of temperature readings to yield a first and second series of offset temperature data. Irrelevant offset temperature data is identified and removed from the first and second series of offset temperature data to yield a first and second series of processed temperature data. A temperature difference at each time point in the time window is determined by comparing the temperature readings or processed temperature data and a foot health change flag is generated if the average of the temperature differences over the time period exceeds a foot health change threshold.

A system, method and computer program product for determining regional sensor data. Sensor readings are obtained from a corresponding plurality of sensors. The sensors are grouped into a plurality of sensor regions. Each sensor region includes at least one region-associated sensor from the plurality of sensors. A plurality of regional sensor values are determined for the plurality of sensor regions by, for each sensor region: identifying a region-specific model, the region-specific model specifying how the at least one regional sensor value for that sensor region is to be calculated; and generating the at least one regional sensor value for that sensor region by applying the region-specific model to the sensor readings obtained from the at least one region-associated sensor corresponding to that sensor region. The regional sensor values can account for sensor and conductivity failures and allow the measurement resolution of the sensing unit to be adjusted.

A process for using temperature measurements to determine health metrics includes: a) using a first temperature sensor of a wearable device to obtain a first set of measurements at a first location on a user's body over a time period; b) using a second temperature sensor of the wearable device to obtain a second set of measurements at a second location on the user's body over the time period; c) processing the measurements to identify changes in temperature over the time period, determining a first health metric based on the changes, and outputting an indication of the first health metric; and d) processing the measurements to compare the temperature at the first location at a given time point to the temperature at the second location at the given time point, determining a second health metric based on the comparison, and outputting an indication of the second health metric.

A sensor-based quantification and analysis system includes an input device including a plurality of sensors that generate an input based on a force. The input device also includes a transmission device that transmits force information based on the input The system also includes an output device that receives the force information. A processing unit selects, for each of the plurality of sensors, one of a plurality of levels of a likelihood of tissue damage based on the force and a predetermined time period. Further, the output device includes a display that presents or logs the one of the plurality of levels of the likelihood of tissue damage for each of the plurality of sensors.
