Techno-shoe could help prevent elderly falls

I wish my father-in-law had had access to this technology starting about three years ago - he was just yesterday diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy in his legs. He's had trouble walking properly for two or three years now because of the nerve problems, and it's just a matter of time before he has a bad fall, I'm thinking.
