PERANCANGAN ALAT TERAPI TELAPAK KAKI BERDASARKAN RESISTANSI TUBUH

Foot therapy is a tool used for therapy that by pressing nerve points on the soles of the feet using
electrical stimulation (electrostimulator). The goal of this study is to create a therapeutic tool that
works automatically based on measurements of body resistance. The design of the sole therapy
tool using a microcontroller as a main board, GSR sensor for skin resistance reading, wave
generation in microcontroller and intensity drivers will work in accordance with the results of
resistance measurements then received by a series of step ups that will provide current to flow at
the electrode. The test was done using an oscilloscope for frequency measurement. The results
obtained from the measurement of the frequency of the largest correction value at the voltage of
25Volt are 0.05 at a frequency of 10Hz. While at a voltage of 25 - 50Volt with a correction value
of 0.04 at a frequency of 50Hz.
