According to Footy Headlines, who got a sneak peek of the soles with an integrated Google Jacquard chip, shoes outfitted with this tech will "allow players to track their touch, control, speed and kicks.”

 

The supporting smartphone application can then link an individual"s real-life performance with their Fifa Mobile Ultimate Team; reportedly, the more you play, the better your digital team gets.

This is just the latest way which Google is implementing its Jacquard smarts, a technology designed to give fabric connected intelligence. The company has already integrated this system into denim jackets and backpacks. — AFP-Relaxnews
