Xiaomi Launches Intelligent Sneakers Powered By Intel Curie Chip
Xiaomi has unveiled another pair of "smart" shoes called MiJia Smart Sneakers, which will be embedded with an Intel Curie Module chip to track your movements.
The lightweight Curie chip is placed into a midsole and "wakes up" every time you move the shoe. It senses whether you are running or just strolling, calculates the distance you cover a day, your average speed and calories burned. All the reports are available in the app. The chip draws power from a single button cell and is water- and dust-resistant.
In addition, the Xiaomi MiJia Smart Sneakers offer comfortable running, by using a slight bend in the toe area, EVA-foam in the sole cushions along with a supportive midsole for stability.
These shoes are available in a shoe for women and men in a few colors with the same common features.
