Time prediction system for the safe wearing of newly acquired footwear

摘要

The device relates to a system for predicting the period for children to safely wear newly acquired footwear without the risk of damage to their growing feet, which is directly applicable in shoe shops (at their computer cash registers). The essence of the solution for a system for predicting the period for children to safely wear newly acquired footwear rests in the fact that it contains an input module measuring foot length and input of information about the age of the monitored child to which is linked a model for predicting the growth of the child's foot by applying the laws of growth, possibly also including genetic and local influences, connected to a comparative and inferential module establishing the predicted course of growth in foot length of the monitored child, to which is then linked an output module designating the nearest date for the necessary replacement of shoe size for the monitored child.

主权项

1. A prediction system of the period for safely wearing newly acquired footwear for children without the risk of damaging their growing feet, the system comprising:
an input module measuring sole length and input of information about the age of a monitored child and a date on which shoes were purchased for the monitored child, to which module is linked a prediction module of the growth of a child's feet implementing the laws of growth on the basis of the Carlberg growth model, including an empirical model originating from an analysis of child's foot length in connection with the age of children, performed on a group of at least 2000 children connected to a comparative and inferential module establishing a predicted course of sole length growth of the monitored child to which then is linked an output module designating a date when it will be necessary to stop using the purchased shoes.
