Smartclothes
Amazing technology has been part of our lives for years. Now it’s even
changing our clothes. Athletes wear devices on their wrists that can track
sleep, heart rate and blood pressure. You can even buy a GPS-based cat collar
that tells you the location and health of your pet.
There are clothes and bags with flexible solar panels that charge devices while you are wearing them. You
have to be in the sun for one hour to charge a smartphone to 50% power.
How will technology combine with clothes in the future? Let’s look at some exciting designs that might be
in the shops soon.
Dresses that move when someone looks at them
Designer Ying Gao has used technology to make some incredible dresses. She’s designed dresses that
respond when someone is looking at them. Eye-tracking technology activates tiny motors inside the fabric.
These motors move to make the dress move and change shape. Others use fingerprint technology. If a
stranger touches the dresses, they move. But if you touch them twice, they “recognise” you and don’t move.
Anti-pollution bracelet
The Hand Tree is a new kind of bracelet. Just like a tree, it takes polluted
air from around you and cleans it. Trees use photosynthesis to turn carbon
dioxide into oxygen, and the Hand Tree uses a carbon filter. It processes
smoke, bad smells and chemicals in the air and recycles the air back into the
atmosphere. Its designer wants to develop more accessories which do the
same thing. Will all our clothes be environmentally friendly in the future?
