  • a) receiving sensor data from a plurality of sensors disposed within left and right shoes when the shoes are moved through gait motions by a user of the shoes;

    b) analyzing the sensor data with an electronic processor by comparing sensor data from the left shoe to the right shoe to determine a difference between the left and right shoes; and

    c) activating a sensory feedback alarm to alert the user when the difference between the left and right shoes exceeds a predetermined threshold.
