Abstract
System, apparatus, articles of manufacture and methods useful for determining an approximate amount of one or more ingredients of wear material released from the wear portion of an item that wears during use of the item involve the use of a material release tracker that is associated with the wear portion and which can be used to estimate the amount of one or more ingredients released from the wear portion.
Claims20
A system for determining degradation of a wearable item, the system comprising:
- a footwear comprising:
- a wear portion comprising a regenerative wear material, the regenerative wear material comprising nutrients;
- and
- a material release tracker configured to provide wear information associated with the wear portion, wherein the wear information indicates a level of degradation of the wear portion;
- and
- a client device implementing an application, the client device configured to:
- obtain, from the material release tracker, the wear information associated with the wear portion;
- and
- provide an indication of the wear information on a display.
6 more elements
A footwear comprising:
- a wear portion comprising a regenerative wear material, the regenerative wear material comprising nutrients;
- and
- a material release tracker configured to provide wear information associated with the wear portion, wherein the wear information indicates a level of degradation of the wear portion and an amount of nutrients released from the regenerative wear material.
An electronic device comprising:
- a display;
- a memory storing a user application;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory and the display, wherein the processor, when implementing the user application, is configured to:
- obtain an image of a material release tracker integrated into a wear portion of a footwear;
- process the image to determine an amount of nutrients released by the wear portion;
- and
- provide an indication of the amount of nutrients released by the wear portion on the display.
