Abstract
A footwear having a sole customized to a wearer's anatomy, the sole formed by receiving a 3D model of a sole having a volume, generating a structural lattice inside the volume of the sole, updating the structural lattice to provide strength while using reduced material, optimizing the structural lattice to maximize energy absorption by the sole, and 3D fabricating the sole with the optimized structural lattice; and sensors coupled to the sole to detect foot pressure and movement data. In one embodiment, the footwear communicates with a network to monitor the wearer's health, the network having computer code to: saving the weight and movement data from the footwear into a health data repository separate from the clinical data repository; mining the clinical data repository and health data repository for patients sharing similarity with the wearer, including one or more similar biomarkers associated with health conditions; identifying at least one similar health conditions and identifying one or more corrective actions recorded in the repository and the result of each action for the one or more health conditions; presenting the corrective action and result to the wearer and recommend…
