      The one I’m designing for my PhD is an insole which studies the way you walk. It works out:

      – the movement of your foot and leg
      – the force underneath your foot when it’s touching the ground
      – and the force in the muscles in your leg

      That data is all sent to a smartphone via bluetooth, and I want to use it to understand how healthy you are.
