A sensor-equipped smartphone configured for connection to its user's footwear soles with sensors and structures configurable by the smartphone and for connection to a big data artificial intelligence computer system connected to other sensor-equipped smartphones configured for connection to their user's footwear soles with sensors and structures configurable by the other smartphones, the smartphone comprising:
- a gyroscope and/or an accelerometer, and
- the smartphone is configured to:
- receive data from one or more sensors in one or both of the footwear soles or removable inner sole inserts of a pair of shoes or other footwear worn by the user of the smartphone and from one or more sensors located on or in a body of the user of the smartphone;
- control a configuration of one or more computer-controlled bladders, compartments, chambers, internal sipes and/or other configurable structures located in one or both of the footwear soles or removable inner sole inserts of a pair of shoes or other footwear worn by the user of the smartphone;
- process data received from the one or more sensors located in either one or both of the footwear soles and/or the removable inner sole inserts or on or in the body of the user of the smartphone,
- connect to a Web site and/or the cloud array of computers for data storage and/or shared or independent processing and/or analysis employing big data techniques in a database with data from a multitude of the other smartphones to find correlations used for medical care of structural or functional problems of the user of the smartphone;
- and
- use at least processed data and data or analysis from the Web site and/or the cloud array of computers to alter a configuration of the one or more bladders, compartments, chambers, internal sipes and/or other configurable structures located in one or both of the footwear soles or removable inner sole inserts of the pair of shoes or other footwear worn by the user of the smartphone.
