A computer system used for medical care connected to sensor-equipped smartphones connected to one or more sensors and smartphone-configurable structures in footwear soles, the computer system employing big data techniques in a database including a multitude of users of footwear including the footwear soles to compare the users' smartphone data to find correlations used for medical care of the users' structural or functional problems, to optimize corrections to the users' impairment from elevated shoe soles, comprising:
- a Web site and/or a cloud array of computers;
- wherein the computer system is configured to have a connection to a smartphone or other mobile computer device including a gyroscope and/or an accelerometer and the computer system is configured to use the device and the connection to control a configuration of:
- one or more sensors and one or more computer-controlled bladders, compartments, chambers and internal sipes located in a footwear sole or a removable inner sole insert of both shoes or other footwear of the user;
- and
- one or more sensors located on or in bodies of the users;
- and
- wherein the computer system is further configured to use the device and the connection to:
- transmit data to the computer system for storage and/or shared or independent processing and/or analysis,
- process data received from the one or more sensors located in either one or both of the sole or the removable inner sole insert of the user, and from the one or more sensors located on or the bodies of the users,
- use at least the processed data to alter the configuration of the one or more bladders, compartments, chambers and internal sipes of the footwear of the user,
- measure the relative positions to each other of a wearer's right and left feet during a stance phase of locomotion so as to determine a degree of crossover of right and/or left feet across a centerline of the wearer's body, as measured in a frontal plane during the stance phase of locomotion, and
- then test a series of configuration settings in order to reduce or eliminate the crossover.
