< p > running helps people's physical exercise, physical health and quality of life, but running often causes damage to the human body.

According to the European Federation of runners, there are 80 million runners in Europe. In 2011, more than 37 million runners were exposed to varying degrees of organ damage during exercise.

< p > the EU seventh R & D framework program (FP7), the theme of innovative small and medium enterprises, is funded by 1 million 60 thousand euros. The European RUNSAFER R & D team, led by scientists and technicians from the Biomedical Research Institute of Valencia, Spain (Valencia), and German, British and Estonia scientific and technological personnel and innovative SMEs, aims to design a new "intelligent" (Smarter) running shoe by using modern information communication technology (ICT), integrating detection devices, controlling control, preventing injury and biomedical knowledge.

The embedded micro processing system developed by the P R & D team will detect, collect and pmit information data such as the runners' biomedical indicators, and integrate them into a centimeter scale slice, and then pmit various useful information to the runners' mobile handsets by wireless pmission.

Runners can adjust their motion plan and amount of exercise in real time through mobile phones, so as to avoid unnecessary injuries according to their physical ability.

The reason for the adoption of mobile phones is that the device can also allow runners to download related management applications from the mobile Internet. It can provide runners with a physical activity based pre analysis exercise program to assist runners in physical training and suggestions for prevention of injury.

< p > this technology adapts to the mobile Internet including Web2.0 function, which provides the possibility of integrating current popular smartphone based heart rate detectors or global navigation and positioning systems.

The breakthrough point of this technology is that it is the first time to integrate organic sports technology parameters with the best physical training and real-time injury prevention advice.

Runners wear smart running shoes as an effective solution to improve athletic quality and avoid injury.
