1. A method of determining a motion type of a body of a user among a plurality of motion types of the body of the user using multifaceted sensing, the method comprising:
- photographing, by a camera, images of the user having a motion;
measuring, by a plurality of pressure and position sensors installed apart from each other at a predetermined distance and in the form of a matrix on a floor, a floor contact position, a floor contact area, and a floor contact pressure of the user, the plurality of pressure and position sensors comprising identical sensors;
identifying, by way of a processor, characteristics of the motion of the body based on at least one of the measured floor contact position, the measured floor contact area, and the measured floor contact pressure of the user; and
identifying, by way of the processor, the motion type of the body corresponding to the identified characteristics of the motion of the body among the plurality of motion types of the body identified based on the photographed images, the plurality of motion types of the body being different from each other.

Abstract
A apparatus for recognizing a motion of an object is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a camera configured to photograph images of the object having the motion, a plurality of pressure and position sensors configured to be installed on a floor and to measure a floor contact position, a floor contact area and a floor contact pressure of the object and a motion analyzer configured to analyze the motion of the object by combining two or more among the images, floor contact position, floor contact area and floor contact pressure of the object.
