APPARATUSES, DEVICES, AND METHODS FOR MEASURING FLUID PRESSURE VARIATION IN AN INSOLE
First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- an insole configured to be disposed under the foot of a user during use;
a fluid reservoir formed at least partly within the insole, the fluid reservoir containing a fluid;
a sensor fluidically coupled to the fluid reservoir, the sensor configured to sense an indication of pressure in the fluid reservoir during use; and
a communications component communicatively coupled to the sensor, the communications component configured to receive the indication of pressure from the pressure sensor and to transmit pressure information associated with the indication of pressure to a remote device.

Abstract
Apparatuses, devices, and methods for measuring pressure are described herein. In some embodiments, a device includes an insole configured to be disposed under a foot of a user during use. The device further includes a fluid reservoir formed at least partly within the insole, the fluid reservoir containing a fluid. The device further includes a sensor fluidically coupled to the fluid reservoir and configured to sense an indication of pressure in the fluid reservoir during use. The device also includes a communications component communicatively coupled to the sensor and configured to receive the indication of pressure from the sensor. The communication component is further configured to transmit pressure information associated with the indication of pressure to a remote device.
