What is claimed is: 1. An intelligent footwear system comprising: an article of footwear comprising a midsole, the midsole defining a cavity therein; a system for monitoring at least one performance characteristic of the article of footwear, the monitoring system at least partially disposed in the
What is claimed is: 1. An intelligent footwear system comprising: an article of footwear comprising a midsole, the midsole defining a cavity therein; a system for monitoring at least one performance characteristic of the article of footwear, the monitoring system at least partially disposed in the cavity and configured for removal from the cavity, wherein the monitoring system comprises a sensor for converting the at least one performance characteristic of the article of footwear into an electrical signal and a transmitter for transmitting the electrical signal; and a processor located remotely to the article of footwear and in communication with the monitoring system, the processor configured to receive the electrical signal and to determine at least one of velocity, acceleration, jerk, distance, and stride frequency of a wearer. 2. The intelligent footwear system of claim 1, further comprising adjusting the performance characteristic of the article of footwear. 3. The intelligent footwear system of claim 1, wherein the electrical signal is transmitted wirelessly. 4. The intelligent footwear system of claim 1, wherein the processor is disposed in a portable electronic device. 5. The intelligent footwear system of claim 4, wherein the portable electronic device includes at least one of a watch and a personal digital assistant. 6. The intelligent footwear system of claim 1, wherein the processor comprises a user input module. 7. The intelligent footwear system of claim 6, wherein the user input module allows a user to adjust the at least one performance characteristic. 8. The intelligent footwear system of claim 6, wherein the user input module comprises a display panel. 9. The intelligent footwear system of claim 1, wherein the sensor is selected from the group consisting of a pressure sensor, a force transducer, a hall effect sensor, a strain gauge, a piezoelectric element, a load cell, a proximity sensor, an optical sensor, an accelerometer, a capacitance sensor, an inductance sensor, an ultrasonic transducer and receiver, a radio frequency emitter and receiver, and a magneto-resistive element. 10. The intelligent footwear system of claim 1, wherein the monitoring system is encased in a waterproof enclosure. 11. The intelligent footwear system of claim 1, wherein the monitoring system further comprises a control system, the control system configured to modify the article of footwear in response to a signal received from the monitoring system. 12. An intelligent footwear system comprising: an article of footwear comprising a midsole, the midsole defining a cavity therein; a system for monitoring at least one performance characteristic of the article of footwear, the monitoring system at least partially disposed in the cavity and configured for removal from the cavity, wherein the monitoring system comprises a sensor for sensing the at least one performance characteristic and a transmitter for transmitting data corresponding to the sensed at least one performance characteristic; and a processor located remotely to the article of footwear and in communication with the monitoring system, the processor configured to send data to and receive data from the monitoring system, wherein the at least one performance characteristic is selected from the group consisting of velocity, acceleration, jerk, distance, and stride frequency of a wearer. 13. An intelligent footwear system comprising: an article of footwear comprising a midsole, the midsole defining a cavity therein; a system for monitoring at least one performance characteristic of the article of footwear, the monitoring system at least partially disposed in the cavity, wherein the monitoring system comprises a sensing system for measuring the at least one performance characteristic and a control system for modifying the article of footwear without the use of a fluid bladder in response to a signal received from the sensing system, wherein the monitoring system is configured for removal from the cavity; and a processor located remotely to the article of footwear and in communication with the monitoring system, the processor configured to send data to and receive data from the monitoring system. 14. The intelligent footwear system of claim 1, further comprising a calibration circuit for performing a calibration procedure on the monitoring system.
