Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of footwear and, in particular, relates to the field of sporting and/or recreational type footwear.
  • the failure to replace a shoe once its cushioning capacity has deteriorated to a potentially harmful extent may result in excessive stress being transferred to the user's joints by continual use of the worn out shoe.
  • the present invention seeks to alleviate at least one of the problems discussed above in relation to the prior art.
  • Embodiments of the invention may include one or any combination of the different broad forms herein described.
  • the present invention provides an apparatus for use with a shoe having a sole, the apparatus including:
  • the present invention provides a shoe including:
  • the display includes at least one of:
  • the ECP display includes a polymer material that is adapted to change colour when a charge is applied to the polymer material.
  • ECP displays tend to be flexible and resilient such that they lend themselves to be integrated into the structure of a shoe.
  • prior art displays such as LCD displays tend to be relatively rigid, prone to damage, and/or relatively inflexible in terms of being integrated into a surface of the prior art shoe.
  • a further advantage in the use of an ECP-type display in contrast to that of an LCD or LED type display is that a constant electrical signal does not need to be applied to the ECP display in order for it to retain its colour state.
  • the CRP display includes a material that changes its colour permanently when a charge is applied to the polymer material.
  • a dye is released permanently altering the colour of the polymer.
  • the display may be disposed on an outward-facing surface of the shoe.
  • the display may be formed as a “mask” which overlays the upper surface of the shoe.
  • the display may be incorporated into a heel of the shoe.
  • the present invention includes a processing device adapted for, amongst other things, controlling the adjustment of the display between the at least first and second colour states.
  • the processing device may be operatively connected with the display and is able to provide control signals to the display in order to control adjustment of the display between colour states.
  • the processing device may include a microprocessor fabricated on an integrated circuit chip.
  • the microprocessor may also include a power supply for powering the microprocessor.
  • the processing device may be programmable by a user.
  • the present invention may include a user control device operatively interfaced with the processing device via which the user may be able to input instructions to the processor including instructions for controlling adjustment of the display.
  • the user control device may include at least one of:
  • the user control device may include a purpose-built device, or alternatively, may include a mobile phone, PDA or other computing device which may be programmed to operate as the user control device.
  • application-specific software may be downloaded into either one of a mobile phone or a PDA adapted for interfacing with the processor via either a wired or wireless signalling link.
  • instructions may be conveniently entered into the processor via the mobile phone or PDA by a user activating the keypad on the mobile phone or PDA without the user necessarily having to purchase a purpose-built user control device.
  • an input jack may be disposed on a surface of the shoe which enables the user control device to be interfaced with the processing device via a cable.
  • the input jack may include a USB or Firewire® type input jack.
  • the jack may for instance be disposed upon a relatively inconspicuous surface of the shoe heel.
  • the user control device may be interfaced with the processing device via a wireless signalling link.
  • the wireless signalling link may include at least one of:
  • the means of adjusting the display includes at least one of:
  • the automatic adjustment means includes:
  • the present invention further includes:
  • the determined deterioration in the cushioning capacity of the sole may be estimated using a pedometer or other suitable measuring device which is adapted to monitor at least one of:
  • the threshold value of deterioration in the shoe may be pre-programmed into the processor device and may be determined by using an impact tester to estimate the number of impacts which may typically be absorbed by a sample shoe sole before an “unacceptable” deterioration in the cushioning capacity of the sole is incurred.
  • the threshold value may therefore correspond to the approximate number of impacts which are absorbed by the sole in use before the unacceptable deterioration in the cushioning capacity occurs.
  • the present invention includes a colour detection device for detecting a colour characteristic of the adjacent environment relative to the shoe in use.
  • a colour detection device for detecting a colour characteristic of the adjacent environment relative to the shoe in use.
  • this may include a colourimeter device, a “light wand”, or the like.
  • the colourimeter may provide an output signal to the processor which in turn may output a control signal to the display which instructs the display to adjust to a colour state which approximates the detected colour characteristic.
  • the ability of the display to adaptively change to a colour state which approximates a colour characteristic of the surroundings may assist the shoe in being camouflaged within its surroundings.
  • a plurality of displays may be disposed upon the shoe surface so as to substantially cover the shoe surface.
  • the “camouflaging” ability of the present invention may also be advantageous in a civilian capacity whereby the shoe may be adapted to change colour to match any number of coloured outfits which may be worn by the user.
  • the present invention may include at least one sensor adapted for detecting when pressure is being applied to the sole of the shoe.
  • the sensor(s) may include at least one of the following:
  • the senor(s) may be disposed in a mid-sole section of the shoe sole.
  • the sensor(s) may be operatively connected to the processing device and the processing device is able to be programmed to cause adjustment in the display whenever a threshold pressure value is detected upon the shoe sole.
  • the processing device may typically compare received sensor output signals with the threshold pressure value and cause adjustment in the display dynamically as the shoe is being worn about by a user.
  • the threshold pressure value may be pre-programmed into the processor whereby the threshold pressure value may be selected to approximate an amount of pressure which may typically be applied to the sole of the shoe in use by an arbitrarily determined average user of the shoe.
  • the processing device may calculate an average pressure reading based on all of the sensor readings before comparing the average pressure reading against the threshold pressure value to determine if the display needs to be adjusted.
  • the plurality of sensors may each be uniquely associated with its own independent corresponding display.
  • the processing device may compare the readings of each sensor independently against the threshold pressure value, and, cause the corresponding displays to adjust accordingly.
  • the displays may be caused to adjust in real-time from the first colour state into the second colour state in a wave-like or rippling fashion along the shoe which is indicative of the transfer of pressure along the sole of the shoe.
  • the display includes an ECP-type display or the like which may be able to continuously toggle back and forth between at least 2 different colour states.
  • the display may be caused to adjust automatically between colour states by reference to an output signal from a timing device.
  • the timing device may for instance be integrated into the processing device.
  • the processing device may send a control signal to the display to change colour state upon detection of completion of a countdown which may be pre-programmed into the processing device by a user.
  • the present invention includes a plurality of displays disposed on the shoe surface.
  • the plurality of displays may be configured to operate either independently wherein each of the plurality of displays may adjust between different colour states and/or commence adjustment in response to different control signals.
  • each of the plurality of displays may be configured to operate in unison with each other—for instance, they may change colour simultaneously in response to a commonly detected operating characteristic.
  • the wireless link may also be configured to operatively interface at least one of:
  • the means of manually controlling adjustment of the display includes the user control device.
  • a user may communicate an instruction to the processing device, which is programmed to interpret the received instruction, so as cause the display to toggle between a first colour state and a second colour state by sending an appropriate control signal to the display.
  • the user may seek to deactivate the adjustment capability of the display for a give period of time by communicating an instruction to this effect to the processing device via the user control device.
  • the processing device may be programmed to provide the user with an option of selecting a particular operating format from a series of pre-defined operating formats wherein each of the pre-defined operating formats may be adapted to suit a particular class of user. For instance a first operating format may adapted to suit users falling within a relatively light weight range of between 50-65 Kg whilst a second operating format may be adapted to suit users falling within a relatively heavier weight range of between 66-85 Kg and so on.
  • the predetermined threshold value against which deterioration of the shoe's cushioning capacity is compared may be set at a higher level taking into account that the relatively lower weight range of the user may result in a prolonged cushioning life of the sole throughout its use.
  • the predetermined threshold value against which deterioration of the shoe's cushioning capacity is compared may typically be set at a relatively lower level in view of the relatively shorter cushioning life expectancy of the sole throughout its use.
  • User selection of a particular operating format may be facilitated by having the options displayed to the user, for instance, in the form of an interactive menu displayed on GUI of the user control device.
  • the present invention may include a computer program which is operable on the processor to prompt the user to enter specific details regarding, amongst other things, the user's weight and height.
  • the program may be adapted to automatically process the received user inputs so as to calculate, amongst other things, a predetermined threshold value against which deterioration in the cushioning capacity of the shoe may be compared.
  • the computer program may also be adapted to calculate in real-time other operating parameters such as the threshold value of pressure which may be applied to the shoe before the display may be caused to toggle between colour states.
  • the computer program may also be adapted to receive user input instructions so as to select the colour of the at least first and second colour states in use. For instance, the user may seek to have the display provide a green colour state when the predetermined threshold cushioning capacity has not been exceeded, and, to adjust into a red colour state when the predetermined threshold cushioning capacity has been exceeded. It would be apparent to a person skilled in the art that any colour combinations may be selectively programmed into the processing device by a user in this manner.
  • this may allow greater flexibility in the commercialisation of the present invention in that a single shoe may be able to accommodate a broader cross-section of the market.
  • the present invention may be at least partially housed within a heel of the shoe.
  • at least the processing device may be housed within the heel of the shoe.

  • the predetermined deterioration threshold value represents an arbitrary measure of the distance traveled by the shoe ( 1 ) before a cushioning capacity of the sole ( 2 ) is estimated to have deteriorated to an unacceptable extent.
  • the predetermined deterioration threshold value of the cushioning capacity of the sole is generally predetermined by testing a sample sole ( 2 ) to determine an approximate distance which would be traveled in ordinary usage before the sole ( 2 ) has deteriorated.

Conversely, if the predetermined deterioration threshold value has not been exceeded by the pedometer value, then the microprocessor ( 4 ) will automatically instruct the first display ( 3 a ) to remain in the first colour state.
  • a colourimeter ( 9 c ) is interfaced with the microprocessor ( 4 ).
  • the colourimeter ( 9 c ) outputs a signal to the microprocessor ( 4 ) which compares the received reading with each colour state of the second ECP display ( 3 b ) and instructs the second ECP display ( 3 b ) to change to the colour state which best approximates the colourimeter reading.
