The Moonwalkers are meant to make you feel like having a moving walkway on your feet. While they look like your regular skates, they are in fact a smart mobility device powered by an intuitive artificial intelligence (AI) drivetrain. They use machine learning algorithms and adapt to the user’s gaits.

Versatile and designed to fit any shoe, the Moonwalkers have padding on the straps, quick-release magnetic buckles, come with electronic brakes, and weigh 4.2 lb (1.9 kg) each. They are built for both smooth and rough terrains and can be worn everywhere, from sidewalks to hills, on the train, bus, in your office, and so on. Shift Robotics claims that its smart shoes offer an increase in your walking speed by 250 percent, helping you move at the speed of a run and reach your destination in less than half the time you’d normally require.
