Abstract

This project is about an IoT-based product. Our current market is still lacking affordable product of smart shoes for health monitoring and location finder. Shoe’s functions can be improved by using technologies that enable a comprehensive view of an individual’s movement and mobility, potentially supporting healthy living as well as complementing medical diagnostics and the monitoring of therapeutic outcomes. Besides that, it can measure athletic performance by tracking fitness and evaluating health metrics. In other words, it can provide personalized health feedback to users. This smart shoe consists of steps counting, posture controlling, and GPS tracking system. It will be controlled by a microcontroller and its insoles feature acts as a Bluetooth-connected accessory that can link activity or position to a smartphone app. A variety of sensors will be used to acquire data such as pressure sensors, ambient environmental sensors, satellite navigation systems, and inertial-magnetic measurement units. The smart shoe is projected to be very useful in maintaining comfort, convenience, and good health as well as security to users.
