1. A wearable, feedback providing bio-sensing system, comprising:
a bio-sensing and feedback program running on a user's smart device, the program receiving wireless data transmitted from a proximal wearable bio-sensing device, the wearable bio-sensing device comprising:
a bio-sensor housing shaped as an insole, planar and flexible with one or more first recesses containing
a controller,
a powering source,
a wireless communication module;
one or more feedback mechanisms providing at least one of a haptic, vibrational, audio, visual, kinesthetic, tactile, olfactory, thermal, vestibular, and somatosensory feedback to a wearer of the bio-sensor housing, at least one of the feedback mechanisms embedded in one or more second recesses in the bio-sensor housing, the feedback being triggered by the controller from instructions sent by the bio-sensing and feedback program;
a three-layered pressure sensor shaped as an insole matching the insole shape of the bio-sensor housing, communicating a measurement to the controller and disposed under the bio-sensor housing, comprising:
a first top layer of parallel strips of conductive material extending approximately to a perimeter of the pressure sensor's insole shape;
a second solid layer of a resistive material extending approximately to the perimeter of the pressure sensor's insole shape; and
a third bottom layer of parallel strips of conductive material oriented orthogonally from the first layer of conductive material and extending approximately to the perimeter of the pressure sensor's insole shape,
wherein the triggered feedback indicates to the user that the measured at least one pressure, movement, temperature, velocity, and acceleration conforms or does not conform to a desired parameter, enabling the user to perform real-time adjustment of his activity.
