A startup company with deep roots on the University of Wisconsin–Madison campus will be featured at a French trade show Feb. 11-15 with its wearable system designed to help runners avoid injury.
The invention by Torq Labs tracks leg movement using five sensors, with help from a smartphone app.
Torq Labs won a booth at the Avantex Paris fashion-tech show after earning first prize at the previous show in September. Avantex focuses on high-tech fabrics, especially those that integrate digital technologies.
