Our smart sensory insole
To find out how you can prevent complications from diabetic foot syndrome, take a look at our expert interview here!
Our smart insoles are equipped with a wafer-thin and highly flexible sensor network that measures the temperature of your soles at all times.
Temperature differences, which can be an indicator of the onset of inflammation, are detected from as little as 0.1°C.
The precise algorithm evaluates the differences and informs you well in advance about our free Foot Guard app.

Movement is an important part of your zest for life. The well-being of your feet is therefore an important part of your life. This includes checking your feet regularly, which is all too often neglected. This can restrict your movement.
Our smart sensory insoles can be discreetly integrated into your everyday life and help you to keep a better eye on temperature fluctuations in your feet.
With the right prevention, you can maintain your mobility for a long time. This motivates us again and again to develop innovative solutions for you.
Frequently asked questions
Our smart insoles detect the temperature at different points on your feet. The app compares the data. If temperature differences occur for longer than 48 hours, the app will notify you instantly. We want to support you in promoting your well-being and that of your feet.
Temperature differences on your feet can have a wide variety of causes. There are scientific studies that have recognized certain developments in this regard; people who have such temperature differences on their feet can suffer from polyneuropathy, for example. This is often just referred to as PNP.
Patients with polyneuropathy suffer from damage to the peripheral nervous system, i.e. the nervous system outside the spinal cord and the brain.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is often a cause. You can find out more about this here!
Yes, positive effects could be observed when the temperature of the sole of the foot was measured regularly. In fact, first observations towards this were made in 1975 in this study by Bergtholdt and Brand.
Furthermore, the International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot (IWGDF) has already included regularly monitoring the temperature of the sole of the foot as a recommendation in its guidelines.
Various studies, such as 1, 2 and 3, also indicate that over 70% (sometimes even over 90%) of foot complications could be detected early using this method.

Currently, we only manufacture our osentec smart sensory insoles in regular shoe sizes. In the future, however, we also plan to offer custom-made products in cooperation with our partners so that we can offer the perfect insole for every foot!
The battery is extremely durable and lasts about 6 months on average, depending on usage. You can then replace it yourself.
To do this, simply open the battery cover on the underside of the insole and insert a new battery. Alternatively, simply go to your medical supply store or your service partner. Compatible are coin cells (type: CR2032).
When manufacturing our smart insoles, we use materials that you may already know from your medical supply store. Anatomically shaped insole cores, a comfortable padding layer and a breathable cover that can be disinfected.
The housing for the electronics is manufactured using a material-friendly 3D printing process with an accuracy of a tenth of a millimeter. Unlike conventional milling, where there is always an enormous amount of waste, with our 3D printing we only use as much material as is really necessary.
Your insoles therefore already have a smaller carbon footprint.
On the contrary: thanks to our 3D printing process and the polyurethane used, they are lighter than conventional orthopedic soles - electronics included. One sole weighs about 100 grams (the weight may vary slightly depending on your shoe size).
Our sensor layers are made of polyurethane, which makes them light and flexible. The top layer is made of breathable fabric so they look little to no different to regular insoles.
Your data is protected at all times and is backed up on certified servers in Germany.
We hereby explicitly inform you that our smart insoles are wellness products and do not claim to have any medical validity.
Using our insoles therefore does not exempt you from checking your feet daily/regularly or from the check-ups prescribed by your doctor.
