Left: Motion diagram illustrating the action of a foot kicking a soccer ball. The two curved lines follow the position of the person's feet, the dots represent the moment when their foot touches the floor, and the bar graph charts the velocity of the kicking foot (where a low bar represents a high velocity). For example; the highest bar corresponds to a dot, where the person's foot is on the floor, motionless.
Center: The translation of the motion diagram into components that will be assembled to create the wearable.
Right: Joints that are cut and folded instead of glued provide a greater range of motion when the wearer walks, and the opportunity to be disassembled. The only components that required glue are where the 'tendons' of the foot meet the ankle strap.
