Smart ski boot solution with embedded sensing and cloud connectivity for real-time performance analysis.
A connected ski boot had to capture motion and biomechanical data from embedded sensors while maintaining low-power operation and reliable wireless connectivity.
Embedded electronics and firmware combine pressure sensing through resistive insoles with accelerometers and gyroscopes. An Espressif platform with ESP-IDF manages the sensing and connectivity stack, while Quectel NB-IoT and cloud services enable continuous performance analysis.
