Study on Comfort Evaluation Methods of Different Women’s High-Heeled Shoes Based on Electroencephalograph (EEG) Technology

The 24-27-year-old women with 230-235 mm feet with the similar level of education were selected for the study. During the test, those subjects were tested by SD semantic differential measurement method and BP EEG signal acquisition system. The brain electrical rhythm characteristics and the subjective comfort feelings in the states of static standing and uniform natural walking were tested. The experimental results show that the heel mechanical changes caused by the heel height and the motion states are negatively correlated with the α wave intensity of the brain while the subjective comfort evaluation is negatively correlated with the α wave intensity in the parietal and occipital regions. The research results reveal that EEG technology is used to evaluate the comfort of wearing high-heeled shoes, which can not only make up for the lack of the subjective evaluation method, but also improve the comfort evaluation system of wearing shoes and boots. All these have the important theoretical and practical significance for the footwear comfort evaluation.
