Footwear having sensor system

An insert for use with an article of footwear, comprising:

• an insert member configured to be inserted into a foot-receiving chamber of the article of footwear, the insert member having a top side and a bottom side, and further having a first opening extending through the insert member from the top side to the bottom side;
• a housing connected to the insert member and configured to receive an electronic module therein, the housing comprising:
• a tub positioned at least partially on the bottom side of the insert member and configured to receive the electronic module;
• a flange connected to the tub and extending outward around at least a portion of the tub to cover at least a portion of the top side of the insert member;
• and
• a first peg connected to the tub and the flange and extending from the flange downward through the first opening to the tub;
• a port connected to the insert and having an interface accessible within the housing, wherein the port is configured for communication with the electronic module through the interface when the electronic module is received in the housing;
• a plurality of force sensors connected to the insert member;
• and
• a plurality of conductive leads located on the insert and connecting the force sensors to the interface of the port.

An insert for use with an article of footwear, comprising:

• an insert member configured to be inserted into a foot-receiving chamber of the article of footwear, the insert member having a top side and a bottom side, and further having a first opening and a second opening spaced from the first opening, the first and second openings extending through the insert member from the top side to the bottom side;
• a housing connected to the insert member and configured to receive an electronic module therein, the housing comprising:
• a base member positioned at least partially on the bottom side of the insert member;
• a cover member positioned the top side of the insert member and connected to the base member, wherein the housing has a chamber configured for receiving the electronic module, the chamber being defined in part by the cover member and the base member;
• a first peg connected to the base member and the cover member and extending from the cover member downward through the first opening to the base member;
• and
• a second peg connected to the base member and the cover member and extending from the cover member downward through the second opening to the base member;
• a port connected to the insert and having an interface accessible within the housing, wherein the port is configured for communication with the electronic module through the interface when the electronic module is received in the housing;
• a sensor system comprising a plurality of sensors connected to the insert member, the sensors being electrically connected to the interface of the port.

An assembly comprising:

• an insert member configured to be engaged with a sole structure of an article of footwear, the insert member comprising at least one layer of a flexible film material and having a hole extending through a thickness of the insert member and a first opening and a second opening extending through the thickness of the insert member adjacent to the hole;
• a plurality of sensors connected to the insert member, each of the plurality of sensors configured for detecting a force exerted on the respective sensor by a user's foot;
• a housing connected to the insert member and received within the hole, the housing having a first peg extending through the first opening and a second peg extending through the second opening to connect the housing to the insert member, wherein the housing is configured for removably receiving an electronic module therein;
• and
• a port electronically connected to the plurality of sensors and comprising an interface having a plurality of electrical contacts configured to engage the electronic module when the electronic module is received within the housing to enable communication of data from the plurality of sensors to the electronic module.
