This invention describes a system for analyzing how someone walks using a special shoe. The shoe has two pressure sensors, one under the ball of the foot or toe and another under the heel. These sensors send data to a connected device, which then determines how the foot lands. Specifically, it identifies a "Heel Strike" if the heel sensor registers more pressure than the ball/toe sensor when the foot first touches the ground. Once the landing style is known, the device calculates the precise moment the foot begins contact with the ground using a tailored method.
Why it matters: Since 2021, advancements in miniaturized, low-power sensors and robust wireless data transmission have made integrating such gait analysis systems into everyday footwear more practical and less intrusive.
