A Talking Shoe?

Google and Adidas have partnered to develop a talking shoe. Huh, a talking SHOE?

As reported by Advertising Age: “Ready for your shoes to judge your lazy butt? Google has you covered. The company, along with Adidas, recently unveiled ‘The Talking Shoe.’ It tracks your speed and performance — and more disconcerting, gives you aural props or smack on how you’re doing, from a microcontroller-connected speaker on the shoe. The sneaks also use Bluetooth to sync up with a smartphone and, in a refreshingly conversational tone, will give you words of encouragement, or advice to slow down and grab a snack.”
