Abstract: A footwear system includes a sensorized insole, a wireless charging transmitter pod, and a wireless charging mat. The insole has an insole bulk having a foot-facing upper surface and a ground-facing lower surface. One or more sensors, one or more batteries, and a wireless charging receiver pod are embedded in the insole bulk. The transmitter pod receives energy and wirelessly transmits energy to the receiver pod. The transmitter pod is positionable against the foot-facing upper surface to wirelessly provide energy to the receiver pod through the insole bulk. The mat receives energy and wirelessly transmits energy to the receiver pod. The mat is positionable adjacent the ground-facing lower surface to wirelessly provide energy to the receiver pod through the first insole bulk. The system is configured to allow only one of the transmitter pod and the mat to provide energy to the receiver pod at a given time.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for synthesizing sensor data in a wearable device. Sensor readings are obtained from a plurality of sensors, the plurality of sensors arranged in a first predetermined pattern, where the first predetermined pattern maps each of the plurality of sensors to respective locations on the wearable device. Based on the plurality of sensor readings and a plurality of estimation weights, a plurality of synthesized sensor readings are estimated for a corresponding plurality of synthesized sensors. The plurality of synthesized sensors are arranged in a second predetermined pattern, wherein the second predetermined pattern maps each of the plurality of synthesized sensors to respective locations on the wearable device. The plurality of sensor readings and the plurality of synthesized sensor readings can be output to provide a comprehensive set of sensor readings. The estimation weights can be optimized in a preprocessing phase.
