摘要： A gesture recognition device configured to detect a gesture performed by a user to actuate a motor of a closure mechanism of an article of footwear. The gesture recognition device may include a sensor unit with an accelerometer sensor, and an analysis unit in operative communication with the sensor unit. The analysis unit may be configured to execute a gesture confirmation algorithm to confirm or reject possible gesture event data received from the sensor unit as a true gesture event. If the gesture confirmation algorithm confirms the possible gesture event data as a true gesture event, the analysis unit may output a signal to actuate the motor.

摘要： The invention relates to a method for fastening a shoe (1), having an upper part (2) and a sole (3) connected thereto, a rotary closure (4) for fastening the shoe (1) on the wearer's foot by means of at least one tensioning element (5), the rotary closure (4) having a rotatably arranged tensioning roller (6), and the tensioning roller (6) being driven by means of an electric motor (7), and a switching element (8), which is connected to control means (9), wherein the switching element (8) and the control means (9) can actuate the electric motor (7), wherein the operation of fastening the shoe (1) takes place by virtue of the person using the shoe (1) using a finger (15) to actuate the switching element (8). In order for it to be possible for the shoe to be fastened on the wearer's foot in a particularly straightforward and reproducible manner, the invention provides for the switching element (8) to have a number of touch-sensitive sensors (10) which are arranged one beside the other and form a surface (11) which is accessible to a user's finger (15), wherein the method comprises the following steps: The finger (15) is passed over the surface (11) of the touch-sensitive sensors (10) in a first direction (R1), the control means (9) detects the signal from the touch-sensitive sensors (10) and the control means (9) and the electric motor (7) cause the shoe to be fastened on the wearer's foot with a first level of fastening force. The invention also relates to a shoe.

摘要： In a guidance support device to be used by being inserted into footwear, a plurality of vibration generating members generate vibrations at a plurality of positions on a foot of a user who uses the guidance support device. A position acquisition part acquires a current position. A route acquisition part acquires a route from the current position to a destination. A vibration control part, on condition that a route pattern at a current position on the route fits any one of a plurality of predetermined patterns, vibrates the vibration generating members in a combination corresponding to the pattern.

摘要： A foot force detection system includes first and second shoe force detection units. The first shoe force detection unit includes pressure sensors, a processing module, and a communication unit. The pressure sensors are operably coupled to produce first force data. The processing module is operably coupled to produce a first digital representation of the first force data. The second shoe force detection unit includes its own pressure sensors, a processing module, and a communication unit. The first and second shoe force detection units communicate with each other via the communication units.

摘要： The disclosure relates to a smart footwear that is capable to maintain the temperature within the set range using Peltier modules (10.i), that are additionally used for energy harvesting. The footwear is equipped with plurality of inner temperature sensors (20.j). Outer temperature is recorded by one or more sensors (30.k). Data processing unit (70) executes a program for heating/cooling and energy harvesting, where only i-th Peltier module is used in time for heating/cooling and other modules (10.1) where i≠l for energy harvesting. In the preferred embodiment, the index i is changed consecutively to be 1->2->3-> . . . ->(N−1)->N with time period D that defines a duty cycle of each i-th Peltier module, and with the adjustable time period D1 before each new cycle 1->2->3-> . . . ->(N−1)->N, while all Peltier modules are in energy harvesting mode. Time periods D and D1 are used to regulate delivered power for heating/cooling.
