Heapsylon Sensoria Socks

We all know about those smart watches and fitness trackers that can collect various information such as heart rate, calories burned, and number of steps taken. But one company has taken it one step further. Being that sensor technology is the future of the our world, let me introduce the smart sock, made by Heapsylon. The sock is able to collect and transmit data through the the electronic sensors that are woven into the sock itself. But not only do they have this patent-pending technology made into socks; they also have t-shirts and sports bras that have the electronic sensors woven into them.

The sensoria socks, shirts, and  sports bras are able to collect and transmit info such as heart rate, activity type, activity level, pressure forces on the body, and more. The sensoria technology itself can be embedded in garments and pieces of clothing or used stand-alone for a wide range of applications, such as clothing, liners, bedding, and accessories. The technology is safe for the skin, machine washable and dryable, and is quite soft and comfortable.

The socks will transmit info by attaching an anklet to it and sending the information to your smartphone application via Bluetooth. The other types of clothing and garments that have this sensor technologywoven into them will work the same way the socks do. But I wanted to highlight the technology in the form of the socks because it has a sizeable potential impact on runners, athletes, and everyday people in our society.

According to Heapsylon, the company that has this patent-pending sensor technology, over 60% of all runners are injured at least once every year. Additionally, a staggering 70% of all people who run have a foot problem that requires attention. This technology can help improve their biometric performance, in terms of how they run and exercise. Sensoria will allow them to reduce the risk of injury and shorten overall recovery time if an injury occurs or is still present. Fitness fanatics will be able to improve their stride cadence and even their specific foot landing technique. Data is needed to improve performance, and sensoria technology does just that. It can do what smart watches and fitness trackers cannot do, and that is why this may be a game changer in the fitness and apparel industry.
