Feet-Measuring Machines

This 3D Foot Scanner Helps Shoe Shoppers Find Their Best Footwear Fit

— May 19, 2017 — Fashion
This three dimensional foot scanner improves the shoe shopping experience by measuring customers' feet and sending personalized information straight to their phones. Israeli fashion tech company Invertex developed the FeetID Ecosystem, which can do all of this in a matter of seconds.

The foot scanner consists of an in-store Launch-Pad unit. A "cognitive match machine" helps the consumer find the best possible shoe fit. Invertex delivers both in-store, online and mobile applications, providing an end-to-end solution for shoe shoppers. Although online retail has seen enormous hikes in popularity in recent years, footwear is one area that continues to be conducted mostly in real life.

This system expertly combines the brick and mortar retail experience with online shopping. The mobile app is specifically designed to enhance the in-person customer experience.
