An Indian high-tech upstart is promising to design a Wizard of OZ-like shoe that vibrates to give the wearer directions.
The GPS-enabled smart sports shoe come with a detachable Bluetooth transceiver that links to a smartphone app to direct the wearer using Google maps, sending a vibrating signal to indicate a left or right turn.
The fiery red sneakers, which will also count the number of steps taken, distance traveled and calories burned, will go on sale in September under the name LeChal, which means “take me along” in Hindi.
