Quote: Apple has been granted a patent of a smart shoe concept, which would see chip-equipped shoes alerting wearers when it’s worn down. The patent is titled as “Shoe wear-out sensor, body-bar sensing system, unitless activity assessment and associated methods” and was filed back in the July of 2012, with authorities recently granting it to the Cupertino firm. Apple’s filing states that it would integrate a sensor and processor in the heel of a shoe, with wearers being alerted when the shoe itself is worn out and needs to be replaced.
