Smart socks

摘要

A Seattle-area start-up company, comprised primarily of Microsoft alumni, is developing a line of "smart" clothing, including socks. Heapsylon has been working on the products for about two years and is now exhibiting its prototype products at major trade fairs such as IPSO 2013, held in Munich. Heapsylon's products can track exercise, activity type and level, in-footwear pressure and other data from the user's foot. The company named the product line 'Sensoria' after the part of the brain where all nerves in the human body come together. That is akin to what the Sensoria smart socks do by wirelessly connecting their smart fabrics sensors to the consumer's mobile or big screen device.
