The hardware processing module and the pressure sensor are communicatively connected based on the wireless communication function, and the hardware processing module can read the foot palm data from the pressure sensor.

[0054] In combination with Figure 2 and Figure 3 , each pressure collecting unit 40 is a pressure sensing area, and each pressure sensing area is a geometric figure. For example, the pressure sensing area can be an oval.

[0055] In this embodiment, the contact surface of the pressure collecting unit 40 for contacting the foot palm is in the same horizontal plane as the upper surface of the insole 20, and the exposed surface of the pressure collecting unit 40 on the lower surface of the insole 20 is in the same horizontal plane as the lower surface. The contact surface of the pressure collecting unit 40 can be exposed on the upper surface of the insole 20 to complete the contact with the foot palm and improve the success rate of collecting pressure data.

[0064] Each pressure collecting unit 40 is connected to the first interface, and then the communication connection between each pressure collecting unit 40 and the hardware processing module is realized after the first interface and the first connector are connected. Further, the hardware processing module can read the collected foot palm data from each pressure collecting unit 40 at the same time. In this embodiment, the communication can be realized through a data line to realize the reading of pressure data from the pressure collecting unit by the hardware processing module.

The protective shell 50 is arranged in the mounting groove, so as to be fixedly connected to the outer side of the shoe body 10.

[0066] In the optional embodiment, the protective shell 50 is installed in a small concave installation groove arranged on the outer side of the shoe body, so as to minimize the protrusion of the protective shell 50 out of the shoe body 10, reduce the collision and friction between the protective shell 50 and external environment objects during walking, and improve the wearing comfort.
