Getting started
If you are interested in reproducing the system, a good start will be to get in contact with us. We might be able to help you out with components and support. Please send an inquiry to openshoe@ee.kth.se or any of the people under the people section.
The minimum steps which are required to reproduce the system are
- Buy an IMU.
- Have the PCB printed and populated for you.
- Have the casing produced by a rappid prototyping service.
- Solder some flat cables between the PCBs
- Assembel the system parts
- Program the micro controller (require JTAG programmer the first time)
If you have time, equipment, and knowledge you might print the PCB yourself, mount the components, and print the casing in some 3D printer. We have also had special shoes manufactured for us but any shoe with a sufficiently thick sole in which you can carve a hole should do.
