<p>Wearable technology advancements have resulted in a new era of healthcare innovation, enabling continuous patient monitoring and emphasizing preventive care. This paper introduces an innovative method for human motion recognition by integrating smart socks equipped with piezoelectric textile pressure sensors. The maximum pressure points on the foot are taken into consideration when placing these sensors onto the smart socks. Environmentally friendly biocompatible piezoelectric materials are utilized in the construction of the textile pressure sensors. Smart socks enable continuous monitoring of a patient’s movement with the help of pressure sensors converting mechanical stress into real-time electrical signals. In addition, an analysis of fall detection was conducted to further validate the system’s capability to distinguish abnormal movements. Subtle variations in foot movement can be detected distinguishing between normal activities and potential fall events. The unobtrusive nature of these smart socks, combined with user comfort and discrete design, positions them as a promising tool for human motion recognition, particularly for applications in elderly care and individuals with mobility challenges.</p>
