Weird LED Disco Shoes Come with Attached Floor
If you ever wanted to be a walking party, then these shoes are for you.
Now here's one of those articles that really isn't hardware or software related. In fact, I would have passed this over had I not read Craziest Gadgets' entire blog thoroughly and nearly hit the floor. Of course, someone out there will totally dig the Billie Jean LED Light-Up Disco Shoes, and if it weren't for the fact that the LED tiles (which emulates MJ's electric step in his Billie Jean video) were attached to the shoes, I might have considered picking up a pair to wear.
But now all I can do is imagine someone walking down the street wearing these things, the LED tiles underneath lighting up with each step like some form of electric platform shoes of the 70s. Apparently each tile contains 9 LEDs which light up thanks to a pressure switch mounted in the shoes. The whole setup is powered by a battery pack that can be stored in your pocket.
"This project was built in a bit of a rush for a party, and there are many things I would have liked to do better with it," the designer said. "They are still awesome though, and plenty bright enough for a club. They look surprisingly cool when not lit up too."
Sure they do.

Thumbs up for the Billy Jean reference.
I am the only one who is creeped out by the vision of a ghostly MJ filling the shoes? Hand reaching up to cock the brim of his hat....
Ok I may be strange but I have a real compulsion to buy these shoes!!
Almost as useless as the Ipad.
"I might have considered picking up a pair to wear."
Your kidding right, they look like shoes some pimp or pimp wannnabe would wear.
The shoes are interesting but forget the tiles.
Almost as useless as the Ipad.
I disagree...
those shoes are infinitely more fun at parties than iPad...

Definitely not going to wear these while doing ninja activities.

if this comes in pink or rainbow colors it'd attract a bigger crowd
this looks like a Homer Simpson idea
