Cardiovascular Innovation Applied to Sneakers
Today I was walking through central London and went to look at sneakers. I picked up a pair and imagined what they'd be like when they had the technology I've developed integrated into them.

What does cardiovascular 🫀 technology have in common with footwear 👟or even Aerospace 🚀?
I have implemented cardiovascular technology to develop smart muscles for different purposes that can influence our daily lives and even for industries such as aerospace.
