## What Jamie wrote

Okay, so I started reading this with the thought of "Really, who needs Smart Shoes?" Then, as I read about the technologies it started to make sense to me for a lot of applications. Elderly people that cannot tie their own shoes? Smart shoes that lace themselves sound great! I personally have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for longer than I'd care to think, and I wonder if a Smart Shoe couldn't help me with that. Your feet work hard, maybe some sensor and intelligence could help them? 🦶
