6 smart shoes with which you are technically up to date

The clothing is getting smarter - from head to toe.And especially on the latter, smart shoes are increasingly to be found, which thanks to sensors not only track personal fitness, but also ensure security.These six models are definitely no longer in their infancy.

Runtopia Reach

A personal trainer would often be helpful when jogging.With the Runtopia Reach you always have it with you in miniature format - in the shoe.Your running behavior is constantly measured via a chip that lies under the footbed: from the frequency of your steps to the gait to the way and how long you perform you.

And that's not enough.During the jogging you will get audio feedback in real time via the associated app.This should not only improve your run, but also prevent injuries.And even distance, raising and calorie consumption are tracked.

Sensoria

According to a very similar principle, the shoes from Sensoria also work.You can automatically record speed, cadence and rolling time during your jogging rounds through the sensors integrated into the sole.Another sensor sits on the heel that stores the collected data.

So you can easily remove the chip and attach to other sensoria shoes on request without losing data.The running data is clearly prepared via the associated sensoria run app so that you have insights into whether and how you can improve in the future.

By the way, Sensoria is also working with Optima on the development of a smart shoe for diabetics.A cooperation with barefoot shoe manufacturer Barefoot was also presented at CES 2018.

Iofit

But not only joggers can improve their performance thanks to the smart shoes, golfers can also benefit from the new technology.With the support of Samsung, the start-up Salted Venture developed a smart fitness shoe called Iofit.In the meantime, the manufacturer has apparently specialized in the golf market with its product.

Thanks to pressure sensors technology in the midsole, iofit measures how your feet work and are in contact with the floor during the swing with the golf club.Via Bluetooth, the data is sent to the associated app in real time and the user gets direct feedback.Wearing the iOfit should continue to maximize the feast width of the golfer.

Under armor

The American sporting goods manufacturer Under Armor is also working on smart sneakers and has already released the third generation of his smart shoe series at CES 2018.The sports shoes have smart sensors in the sole of the shoe, including a gyroscope, an acceleration sensor and a Bluetooth module.

They provide metric data at a distance, step length and cadence.Practical: The modules are automatically activated when movement comes into play and synchronized with the smartphone.If you have forgotten the smartphone at home, you can also catch up with an internal memory.The battery on board is supposed to hold the whole shoebow.

Evone

Admittedly, from a certain age, the jogging days are over for many.But that does not mean that seniors cannot benefit from smart shoes.The French manufacturer Evone has developed a footwear especially for older people who informs the delicacies that have become close to the sponsor when it has fallen.The shoe recognizes this through a built -in gyroscope and an acceleration sensor.

And GPS is also on board with the shoe.The carrier knows by a vibration report that help is on the way.So that there is the right model for every taste, there are 26 different designs of the Evone.Incidentally, the manufacturer also offers the right smart footwear for construction sites or hikes.
