Schering Plough and Tekscan Partner to Deliver Foot Orthotics
Schering Plough and Tekscan partner to develop a revolutionary new kiosk designed to assess your feet and recommend the optimal Dr. Scholl's® Custom Fit™ Orthotic for consumers looking to add more cushioning and support to their footwear.
Boston, MA (PRWEB) June 18, 2009 -- Schering-Plough Health Care Products and Tekscan, Inc. have partnered to develop a revolutionary new kiosk designed to assess your feet and recommend the optimal Dr. Scholl's® Custom Fit™ Orthotic for consumers looking to add more cushioning and support to their footwear. The Dr. Scholl's® Custom Fit™ Orthotics system uses the patented science of Tekscan's pressure sensing technology along with sophisticated algorithms to recommend a perfect fit.
Revolutionary new kiosk designed to assess foot pressure pattern, arch type, and foot length and recommend optimal orthotics.
The consumer simply steps up to the kiosk and onto the sensing platform and, within seconds, receives a Dr. Scholl's® Custom Fit™ Orthotic recommendation based on their foot pressure pattern, arch type, and foot length. The orthotic, designed with special cushioning and support layers, offloads high pressure areas with support and comfort in mind.
Dr. Scholl's® Custom Fit™ Orthotic Kiosks can be found in Meijer, Kroger, CVS, Wal-Mart, and Walgreens retail stores in select markets, with further expansion planned. To find a Dr. Scholl's® kiosk location near you, visit www.footmapping.com.
Tekscan's pressure mapping systems are used around the world in numerous applications - not only by physicians, clinicians, prominent universities, and hospitals, but by corporations for research, product development, manufacturing, and quality control.
