The stages of creation smart clothing and electronic garments

Abstract

Students are challenged to design an item of ‘smart’ clothing: clothes that are not simply wearable but have a double function and incorporate technology to help or support people in various ways. For example, “wearables”: clothes that are composed of intelligent material that is washable, and that contains micro sensors that measure the heartbeat, location and speed of the wearer. This project is about combining various applications into a new design.
