Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of computer-aided design, and in particular relates to a method and device for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on dynamic toe data. Background Art

[0002] Patent No. CN114996786B, entitled "Method and Apparatus for Shoe Model Design Based on Dynamic Foot Data," proposes a shoe model design method that relies on static data (such as foot shape data, static pressure distribution, etc.) to determine the shape and thickness of the shoe. Although these static designs can meet some needs, they cannot reflect the dynamic changes of the shoe during actual walking. In addition, the use of toddler shoes is dynamic, and the bending and compression of the shoe during walking will change with the change of gait. Traditional methods cannot capture these dynamic changes, resulting in the design of the toe and sole often not matching the actual usage. For example, during walking, the bending angle of the toe and the compression of the midsole will change as the steps progress, and traditional static designs cannot adjust according to these changes.

[0003] The design of learning shoes must ensure the coordinated interaction between the toe box and the sole, specifically the coordination between the toe box's curvature and the midsole's compression. The toe box's curvature affects the toes' range of motion and comfort, while the midsole's compressibility determines the sole's elasticity and support. A significant discrepancy between the toe box's curvature and the midsole's compression can lead to the following problems: insufficient toe box curvature and excessive midsole compression, resulting in insufficient sole support. This can lead to foot fatigue, discomfort, or pain during walking, and compromised gait stability and comfort. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to at least partially address one of the technical problems in the related art. To this end, the first object of the present invention is to propose a method for designing a toe model for ultra-light toddler shoes based on dynamic toe data. This method can optimize the toe thickness, adjust the toe bending angle, and adjust the midsole compression performance to better adapt to a child's walking process.

[0005] The second object of the present invention is to provide a device for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on toe dynamic data.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a method for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on toe dynamic data to determine the midsole compression amount;

[0007] S100, obtaining walking dynamic data of the toddler shoes and the thickness of the toe of the toddler shoes;

[0008] S200, calculating a toe bending angle balance and a toe midsole compression deformation balance based on walking dynamic data of the toddler shoe;

[0009] S300 calculates the appropriate toe thickness based on the toe thickness, toe bending angle balance, and toe midsole compression deformation balance of the toe;

[0010] S400 generates a new toddler shoe model by adjusting the toe box thickness.

[0011] According to the design method of the embodiment of the present invention, the toe thickness can be optimized to adjust the bending angle of the toe and the compression performance of the midsole, so that the toe can better adapt to the walking process of children.

[0012] Furthermore, in step S100, the walking dynamic data of the toddler shoes and the toe thickness of the toddler shoes are obtained, wherein the walking dynamic data of the toddler shoes include the toe bending angle and the midsole compression amount, including:

[0013] Toddler shoes are designed and produced using the shoe body model design method proposed in patent number CN114996786B, entitled "Method and Apparatus for Designing a Shoe Body Model Based on Foot Dynamic Data." The toddler shoes produced using this method are designed and produced by shooting a single 5-second dynamic walking video of the toddler shoe at different angles, with the time interval T of the video frames set to [0.1] seconds. This time interval is used to ensure that each frame of the image reflects the dynamic changes of the toddler shoe during walking. The shot walking video is frame-processed according to the time interval T to obtain multiple static images of the toddler shoe during walking, which correspond to the dynamic states at different time points. The walking dynamic data of the toddler shoe is obtained by performing image recognition on the static images of the toddler shoe during movement, wherein the walking dynamic data of the toddler shoe includes the toe bending angle and the midsole compression (midsole compression or midsole compression deformation).

[0014] Furthermore, the thickness of the toe of the learning shoe is obtained, wherein the method for obtaining the thickness of the toe of the learning shoe is to obtain it through the thickness parameter of the toe of the shoe body model of the learning shoe.

[0015] Because the design of learning shoes requires ensuring the interaction and coordination between the toe and the sole, especially the coordination between the toe curvature and the midsole compression; the toe curvature angle affects the range of motion and comfort of the toes, while the compressibility of the midsole determines the elasticity and support of the sole. If the difference between the toe curvature angle and the midsole compression performance is too large, it may lead to the following problems: insufficient toe curvature angle and excessive midsole compression, the sole cannot provide sufficient support, leading to foot fatigue during walking, prone to discomfort or pain, and affecting the stability and comfort of gait. To solve the above problems, the present invention proposes step S200;

[0016] Furthermore, in step S200, calculating the toe bending angle balance and the toe midsole compression deformation balance according to the walking dynamic data of the toddler shoe includes:

[0017] Let Head(Tk) be the toe bending angle of the toddler shoe at the kth time interval, and SOL(Tk) be the midsole compression of the toddler shoe at the kth time interval, where Tk = [(k-1)*T, k*T], k = 1, 2, ..., C, C = 50; obtain the maximum value of Head(Tk) and record it as Head(Tm), record Tm as the bending time, obtain the maximum value of SOL(Tk) and record it as SOL(Tx), record Tx as the compression time, m∈[1, C], x∈[1, C];

[0018] Calculate the balance of compression deformation of the toe midsole and the balance of the toe bending angle;

[0019] When walking in toddler shoes, first determine the maximum midsole compression SOL(Tm), which is the midsole compression value when the toe bending angle is the largest (i.e., at time Tm); calculate the sum of the differences between the compression SOL(Tk) and SOL(Tm) from the 1st to the Cth time point as the difference sum, and use 1 minus the difference sum divided by the product of the time interval C and SOL(Tm) as the correction ratio. Multiply the correction ratio by SOL(Tm) to obtain the toe midsole compression deformation balance SOLK. The mathematical expression of SOLK is:

[0020]

[0021] The principles of toe-toe midsole compression balance and toe-toe bending angle balance are based on the dynamic performance of toddler shoes during walking, reflecting the interactive relationship between the toe and midsole. The toe-toe midsole compression balance analyzes the midsole compression at different time points during walking, specifically when the toe bending angle reaches its maximum (bending time), and calculates the difference between the compression at each moment and the maximum midsole compression. Adjusting the thickness based on the toe-toe midsole compression balance ensures that the sole's inherent stress and external loads are balanced when the toe bending angle reaches its maximum, preventing irreversible physical bending, which in turn improves the stability of the shoe.

[0022] Furthermore, the toe bending angle balance HeadK is calculated by the toe midsole compression deformation balance. This angle is calculated based on the maximum bending angle Head(Tm) and the toe midsole compression deformation balance SOLK.

[0023] The calculation steps of the toe bending angle balance value HeadK include:

[0024] The maximum bending angle Head (Tm) is taken as the reference value and multiplied by the balance ratio to be recorded as HeadK, where the balance ratio is the ratio between the compression deformation balance of the toe midsole SOLK and SOL (Tx). The calculation formula of the toe bending angle balance HeadK is:

[0025]

[0026] The toe box bend balance is determined by the ratio of the maximum bend angle to the corrected midsole compression set. It measures the balance between the toe box's bending degree and the midsole's compressive performance. A large discrepancy between the toe box's bending and compression may indicate insufficient thickness, preventing effective foot support. Conversely, a small discrepancy may indicate excessive thickness, impacting comfort. Combining these two factors helps optimize toe box thickness through dynamic data for optimal comfort and support.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this step are as follows: Step S200 calculates the dynamic walking data of the toddler shoes to accurately obtain the balance of the toe bending angle and the balance of the toe midsole compression deformation, thereby providing a scientific basis for the design of the toe thickness; by shooting a dynamic video of the toddler shoes during walking and combining image recognition technology to extract dynamic data such as the toe bending angle and midsole compression, it can quantitatively reflect the dynamic changes of the toe and sole at different time points; by comparing the maximum bending angle and the maximum midsole compression, the balance of the toe bending angle and the balance of the toe midsole compression deformation are calculated, and then the temporal relationship between the toe bending and compression is analyzed, ensuring that the toddler shoes can effectively support the dynamic changes of the foot and provide a comfortable walking experience. Compared with traditional static design methods, S200 can accurately capture the interaction between the toe and the footstep through dynamic data-driven design optimization, which can meet the user's comfort and support needs.

[0028] Since the shoe body model design method proposed in patent number CN114996786B, entitled "Method and device for designing shoe body models based on dynamic foot data", relies on static data (such as foot shape data, static pressure distribution, etc.) to determine the shape and thickness of the shoe when designing and producing toddler shoes, although these static designs can meet some needs, they cannot reflect the dynamic changes of the shoe during actual walking. In addition, the use process of toddler shoes is dynamic, and the bending and compression of the shoe during walking will change with the change of gait. Traditional methods cannot capture these dynamic changes, resulting in the design of the toe and sole often not matching the actual usage. For example, during walking, the bending angle of the toe and the compression of the midsole will change as the steps advance, and traditional static designs cannot be adjusted according to these changes. In order to solve the above problem, the present invention proposes step S300.

[0029] Furthermore, in step S300, the appropriate thickness of the toe is calculated by the toe thickness of the toddler shoe, the toe bending angle balance and the toe midsole compression deformation balance: for each time interval Tk, the angle offset difference HAK(Tk) = |Head(Tk)+HeaK-Head(Tx)|÷(HeaK×3) is calculated, where || is the absolute value, Head(Tk) is the toe bending angle of the toddler shoe at the kth time interval, HeaK is the bending angle balance, and Head(Tx) is the toe bending angle at the compression time; all the angle offset differences are added and divided by C to obtain the thickness balance ratio β, and the toe thickness of the toddler shoe is denoted as U. When β is greater than 0.2, the appropriate thickness of the toe Uadjusted is U×(1+β-0.2); when β is less than 0.2, the appropriate thickness of the toe Uadjusted is U×(1-β).

[0030] The angle offset difference, HAK(Tk), is the difference between the actual toe flexion angle, Head(Tk), and the toe flexion angle, HeaK, during compression, for each time interval (Tk). Excessive angle offset differences indicate a design issue with the toe box, resulting in insufficient support or incompatibility with foot dynamics.

[0031] The thickness balance ratio β reflects the relationship between the toe box's bending angle and midsole compression. When β is greater than 0.2, the difference between the toe box's bending angle and compression is large, indicating that the toe box thickness is too small to effectively support dynamic bending and deformation. When β is less than 0.2, the difference between the toe box's bending angle and compression is small, indicating that the toe box thickness is too large, or the dynamic support is too strong, failing to meet comfort requirements. The toe box thickness needs to be reduced to increase flexibility.

[0032] S400, generates a new toddler shoe model through moderate thickness of the toe box;

[0033] The appropriate thickness Uadjusted of the toe of the toddler shoe is used as the toe thickness parameter and applied to the shoe body model design to generate a new toddler shoe body model.

[0034] Preferably, the geometric shape of the toe cap is adjusted according to the appropriate thickness, especially the curve and thickness distribution of the toe cap to ensure that it can support the bending of the foot without hindering normal walking movements.

[0035] Preferably, based on the result of appropriate thickness adjustment and combined with other walking dynamic data (such as gait, walking frequency, etc.), the overall design of the shoe body is adjusted through computer-aided design software to optimize the balance of the toe and sole to ensure that the comfort and support of the shoe can achieve the expected results.

[0036] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the second aspect embodiment of the present invention further proposes a device for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on toe dynamic data. The device for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on toe dynamic data includes: a processor, a memory, and a computer program stored in the memory and runnable on the processor. When the processor executes the computer program, the steps in a method for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on toe dynamic data are implemented. The device for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on toe dynamic data runs on a computing device such as a desktop computer, a notebook, a PDA, and a cloud data center.

[0037] By implementing an ultra-light toddler shoe toe model design method based on toe dynamic data through an ultra-light toddler shoe toe model design device based on toe dynamic data, the toe thickness can be optimized, the toe bending angle and the compression performance of the midsole can be adjusted, so that the shoe can better adapt to the child's walking process.

[0041] Figure 1 Shown is a flow chart of a method for designing a toe model of ultra-lightweight toddler shoes based on toe dynamic data.

[0042] Reference Figure 1 The present invention proposes a method for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on toe dynamic data, the method comprising the following steps:

[0043] S100, obtaining walking dynamic data of the toddler shoes and the thickness of the toe of the toddler shoes;

[0044] S200, calculating a toe bending angle balance and a toe midsole compression deformation balance based on walking dynamic data of the toddler shoe;

[0045] S300 calculates the appropriate toe thickness based on the toe thickness, toe bending angle balance, and toe midsole compression deformation balance of the toe;

[0046] S400 generates a new toddler shoe model by adjusting the toe box thickness.

[0047] According to the design method of the embodiment of the present invention, the toe thickness can be optimized to adjust the bending angle of the toe and the compression performance of the midsole, so that the toe can better adapt to the walking process of children.

[0048] Furthermore, in step S100, the walking dynamic data of the toddler shoes and the toe thickness of the toddler shoes are obtained, wherein the walking dynamic data of the toddler shoes include the toe bending angle and the midsole compression amount, including:

[0049] Toddler shoes are designed and produced using the shoe body model design method proposed in patent number CN114996786B, entitled "Method and Apparatus for Designing a Shoe Body Model Based on Foot Dynamic Data." The toddler shoes produced using this method are designed and produced by shooting a single 5-second dynamic walking video of the toddler shoe at different angles, with the time interval T of the video frames set to [0.1] seconds. This time interval is used to ensure that each frame of the image reflects the dynamic changes of the toddler shoe during walking. The shot walking video is frame-processed according to the time interval T to obtain multiple static images of the toddler shoe during walking, which correspond to the dynamic states at different time points. The walking dynamic data of the toddler shoe is obtained by performing image recognition on the static images of the toddler shoe during movement, wherein the walking dynamic data of the toddler shoe includes the toe bending angle and the midsole compression (midsole compression or midsole compression deformation).

[0050] Furthermore, the thickness of the toe of the learning shoe is obtained, wherein the method for obtaining the thickness of the toe of the learning shoe is to obtain it through the thickness parameter of the toe of the shoe body model of the learning shoe.

[0051] Because the design of learning shoes requires ensuring the interaction and coordination between the toe and the sole, especially the coordination between the toe curvature and the midsole compression; the toe curvature angle affects the range of motion and comfort of the toes, while the compressibility of the midsole determines the elasticity and support of the sole. If the difference between the toe curvature angle and the midsole compression performance is too large, it may lead to the following problems: insufficient toe curvature angle and excessive midsole compression, the sole cannot provide sufficient support, leading to foot fatigue during walking, prone to discomfort or pain, and affecting the stability and comfort of gait. To solve the above problems, the present invention proposes step S200;

[0052] Furthermore, in step S200, calculating the toe bending angle balance and the toe midsole compression deformation balance according to the walking dynamic data of the toddler shoe includes:

[0053] Let Head(Tk) be the toe bending angle of the toddler shoe at the kth time interval, and SOL(Tk) be the midsole compression of the toddler shoe at the kth time interval, where Tk = [(k-1)*T, k*T], k = 1, 2, ..., C, C = 50; obtain the maximum value of Head(Tk) and record it as Head(Tm), record Tm as the bending time, obtain the maximum value of SOL(Tk) and record it as SOL(Tx), record Tx as the compression time, m∈[1, C], x∈[1, C];

[0054] Calculate the balance of compression deformation of the toe midsole and the balance of the toe bending angle;

[0055] When walking in toddler shoes, first determine the maximum midsole compression SOL(Tm), which is the midsole compression value when the toe bending angle is the largest (i.e., at time Tm); calculate the sum of the differences between the compression SOL(Tk) and SOL(Tm) from the 1st to the Cth time point as the difference sum, and use 1 minus the difference sum divided by the product of the time interval C and SOL(Tm) as the correction ratio. Multiply the correction ratio by SOL(Tm) to obtain the toe midsole compression deformation balance SOLK. The mathematical expression of SOLK is:

[0056]

[0057] The principles of toe-toe midsole compression balance and toe-toe bending angle balance are based on the dynamic performance of toddler shoes during walking, reflecting the interactive relationship between the toe and midsole. The toe-toe midsole compression balance analyzes the midsole compression at different time points during walking, specifically when the toe bending angle reaches its maximum (bending time), and calculates the difference between the compression at each moment and the maximum midsole compression. Adjusting the thickness based on the toe-toe midsole compression balance ensures that the sole's inherent stress and external loads are balanced when the toe bending angle reaches its maximum, preventing irreversible physical bending, which in turn improves the stability of the shoe.

[0058] Furthermore, the toe bending angle balance HeadK is calculated by the toe midsole compression deformation balance. This angle is calculated based on the maximum bending angle Head(Tm) and the toe midsole compression deformation balance SOLK.

[0059] The calculation steps of the toe bending angle balance value HeadK include:

[0060] The maximum bending angle Head (Tm) is taken as the reference value and multiplied by the balance ratio to be recorded as HeadK, where the balance ratio is the ratio between the compression deformation balance of the toe midsole SOLK and SOL (Tx). The calculation formula of the toe bending angle balance HeadK is:

[0061]

[0062] The toe box bend balance is determined by the ratio of the maximum bend angle to the corrected midsole compression set. It measures the balance between the toe box's bending degree and the midsole's compressive performance. A large discrepancy between the toe box's bending and compression may indicate insufficient thickness, preventing effective foot support. Conversely, a small discrepancy may indicate excessive thickness, impacting comfort. Combining these two factors helps optimize toe box thickness through dynamic data for optimal comfort and support.

[0063] The beneficial effects of this step are as follows: Step S200 calculates the dynamic walking data of the toddler shoes to accurately obtain the balance of the toe bending angle and the balance of the toe midsole compression deformation, thereby providing a scientific basis for the design of the toe thickness; by shooting a dynamic video of the toddler shoes during walking and combining image recognition technology to extract dynamic data such as the toe bending angle and midsole compression, it can quantitatively reflect the dynamic changes of the toe and sole at different time points; by comparing the maximum bending angle and the maximum midsole compression, the balance of the toe bending angle and the balance of the toe midsole compression deformation are calculated, and then the temporal relationship between the toe bending and compression is analyzed, ensuring that the toddler shoes can effectively support the dynamic changes of the foot and provide a comfortable walking experience. Compared with traditional static design methods, S200 can accurately capture the interaction between the toe and the footstep through dynamic data-driven design optimization, which can meet the user's comfort and support needs.

[0064] Since the shoe body model design method proposed in patent number CN114996786B, entitled "Method and device for designing shoe body models based on dynamic foot data", relies on static data (such as foot shape data, static pressure distribution, etc.) to determine the shape and thickness of the shoe when designing and producing toddler shoes, although these static designs can meet some needs, they cannot reflect the dynamic changes of the shoe during actual walking. In addition, the use process of toddler shoes is dynamic, and the bending and compression of the shoe during walking will change with the change of gait. Traditional methods cannot capture these dynamic changes, resulting in the design of the toe and sole often not matching the actual usage. For example, during walking, the bending angle of the toe and the compression of the midsole will change as the steps advance, and traditional static designs cannot be adjusted according to these changes. In order to solve the above problem, the present invention proposes step S300.

[0065] Furthermore, in step S300, the appropriate thickness of the toe is calculated by the toe thickness of the toddler shoe, the toe bending angle balance and the toe midsole compression deformation balance: for each time interval Tk, the angle offset difference HAK(Tk) = |Head(Tk)+HeaK-Head(Tx)|÷(HeaK×3) is calculated, where || is the absolute value, Head(Tk) is the toe bending angle of the toddler shoe at the kth time interval, HeaK is the bending angle balance, and Head(Tx) is the toe bending angle at the compression time; all the angle offset differences are added and divided by C to obtain the thickness balance ratio β, and the toe thickness of the toddler shoe is denoted as U. When β is greater than 0.2, the appropriate thickness of the toe Uadjusted is U×(1+β-0.2); when β is less than 0.2, the appropriate thickness of the toe Uadjusted is U×(1-β).

[0066] The angle offset difference, HAK(Tk), is the difference between the actual toe flexion angle, Head(Tk), and the toe flexion angle, HeaK, during compression, for each time interval (Tk). Excessive angle offset differences indicate a design issue with the toe box, resulting in insufficient support or incompatibility with foot dynamics.

[0067] The thickness balance ratio β reflects the relationship between the toe box's bending angle and midsole compression. When β is greater than 0.2, the difference between the toe box's bending angle and compression is large, indicating that the toe box thickness is too small to effectively support dynamic bending and deformation. When β is less than 0.2, the difference between the toe box's bending angle and compression is small, indicating that the toe box thickness is too large, or the dynamic support is too strong, failing to meet comfort requirements. The toe box thickness needs to be reduced to increase flexibility.

[0068] S400, generates a new toddler shoe model through moderate thickness of the toe box;

[0069] The appropriate thickness Uadjusted of the toe of the toddler shoe is used as the toe thickness parameter and applied to the shoe body model design to generate a new toddler shoe body model.

[0070] Preferably, the geometric shape of the toe cap is adjusted according to the appropriate thickness, especially the curve and thickness distribution of the toe cap to ensure that it can support the bending of the foot without hindering normal walking movements.

[0071] Preferably, based on the result of appropriate thickness adjustment and combined with other walking dynamic data (such as gait, walking frequency, etc.), the overall design of the shoe body is adjusted through computer-aided design software to optimize the balance of the toe and sole to ensure that the comfort and support of the shoe can achieve the expected results.

[0072] The experimental design is as follows:

[0073] Experimental purpose: By comparing the performance of toddler shoes made by traditional design methods and those made by dynamic data optimization design methods in terms of comfort, support, gait stability, etc., the advantages of toddler shoes designed based on dynamic data optimization are evaluated.

[0074] Experimental Preparation: Experimental Group: Toddler shoes optimized and designed using the ultra-light toe model design method based on toe dynamic data proposed in this invention. Control Group: Toddler shoes designed and produced using the shoe body model design method proposed in Patent No. CN114996786B, entitled "Method and Apparatus for Shoe Body Model Design Based on Foot Dynamic Data."

[0075] Equipment and Tools: Motion tracking device: used to capture dynamic walking data while wearing toddler shoes. Pressure distribution test pad: used to test the pressure distribution on the sole during gait. Gait analyzer: used to record gait stability and monitor changes in center of gravity during walking. Video camera: used to capture video of the toddler shoes during walking and capture dynamic changes.

[0076] Participants: 20 volunteers (10 males, 10 females), aged 5-12 years old. Each volunteer was required to wear the shoes of the experimental group and the control group for walking tests.

[0077] Testing and data collection during the experiment:

[0078] 1. Subjective Rating of Comfort and Support: Volunteers walked for 10 minutes wearing the experimental and control shoes. The comfort and support of each volunteer were assessed during the test. Each volunteer rated the shoes based on their personal experience on a scale of 1-10.

[0079] 2. Gait Analysis: Volunteers will perform a 5-minute gait test wearing two types of walking shoes. Gait stability will be recorded using a gait analysis instrument, and pressure distribution on the sole will be analyzed using a pressure test pad. Center of gravity change and gait stability scores will be used as evaluation indicators for the dynamic adaptability of the shoes.

[0080] 3. Pressure distribution test: Use a pressure sensor to test the pressure distribution of the sole in contact with the ground during walking to evaluate the support and comfort of the sole.

[0081] Statistics and analysis of experimental results:

[0082] The results of the experimental and control groups were statistically analyzed to compare the differences in comfort, support, gait stability, pressure distribution, center of gravity change, etc. Statistical software was used to analyze the data and evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of dynamic data-driven toddler shoe design compared to traditional design methods.

[0083] The statistical results are as follows:

[0084]

[0085] The experimental group significantly outperformed the control group in terms of comfort, support, and gait stability. The experimental group's shoes had more even pressure distribution, effectively controlling center of gravity shifts and providing better gait support. An optimization design method based on dynamic data effectively improved the comfort and support of the toddler shoes, particularly in terms of the balance between the toe box bend angle and the midsole compression set.

[0086] Reference Figure 2 The present invention also proposes a device 20 for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on dynamic toe data. The device 20 includes a processor, a memory, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor executes the computer program, the steps of a method for designing a toe model of an ultra-light toddler shoe based on dynamic toe data are implemented. The device 20 runs on a computing device such as a desktop computer, a notebook computer, a PDA, and a cloud data center.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the example is merely an example of a device for designing a toe model of an ultralight toddler shoe based on dynamic toe data 20, and does not constitute a limitation on a device for designing a toe model of an ultralight toddler shoe based on dynamic toe data 20. The device can include more or fewer components than the example, or combine certain components, or different components.
