1. A method comprising:
receiving first data and second data for a series of compression events of a region of self-sensing composite polymeric foam, the self-sensing composite polymeric foam being used as padding in a shoe, the first data being based on a decrease in electrical resistance caused by first compression events of the self-sensing composite polymeric foam and the second data being based on an electric potential generated by the self-sensing composite polymeric foam caused by second compression events; and
providing real-time physical feedback for the series of compression events by:
converting the first data to pressure data;
converting the second data to force data;
comparing the pressure data and the force data to a profile; and
providing feedback based on a result of the comparing.
