Smart Safety Shoe
In collaboration with the University of Technology (TU) in Delft, in 2021 we began developing the safety shoe of the future: the Smart Safety Shoe. This footwear analyses the posture of the wearers and signals when they assume the wrong posture. When this information is passed onto the wearers, they can adjust their posture or better design their working environment. This can prevent injuries and physical complaints. Students who have specialised in artificial intelligence are participating in this research. They study how the data about the posture of the user can be obtained using sensors in the footwear.
