Movement And Event Systems And Associated Methods
First Claim
1. A system of monitoring weight of a person, comprising:
- a plurality of pressure sensors integrated with a shoe, for generating signals responsive to weight of a person wearing the shoe when walking or running over ground;
a processor for processing the signals to determine an improper walking or running event;
a transmitter for transmitting a signal indicative of the improper walking or running event; and
a remote receiver for receiving the signal and generating an indication of the improper running or walking event.

Abstract
A method for monitoring fractional weight supported by one foot of a person, comprising the steps of adhering a movement monitor device underneath the foot such that the device is compressed when weight is applied to the foot; generating wireless signals representative of a target fractional weight of a total weight of the person; remotely receiving the wireless signals as information of the fractional weight. A method of monitoring weight of a person, comprising the steps of arranging one or more weight sensitive detectors underneath a foot of the person; processing signals from the detectors to determine weight; and wirelessly communicating the weight to a remote receiver.
