Different gestures correspond to different actions on the phone. For example, you can do a moonwalk while wearing shoes so that the phone initiates a call. Accordingly, you can start clapping for the mobile to play music. This is made possible thanks to motion sensors placed in the sole and monitoring their position relative to each other.
