1. A cyber foot cover for use in a system for detecting movements of a person using the system, the cyber foot cover comprising:
a foot cover for receiving one or more sensors or at least one marker to track movement of a foot of the person using the system,
fastening means with which the foot cover is attachable to a leg of the person using the system, and
a sole which has a bottom surface that is curved towards all edges of the sole so as to allow a continuously sliding rolling movement of the foot over a ground in forward, backward, and lateral directions, wherein a curvature of the sole in at least one of a longitudinal or transverse direction is adapted to match a design of a seat on which the person using the system can sit, such that a smooth rolling motion of the foot when moving the leg is provided and stability of the person is achieved by an elevated sitting position.
