I think that in a few years, we can buy clothes like this were the tech and battery is so flat and resistant that it can actually be built into the clothes themselves and not have to be removed for washing.
Admittedly, apart from unsubtle decoration, I don't imagine what good uses this will have. But then there are many good uses and technologies which I did not imagine before they arrived. In fact, that's most of them.
# Animated Decal is Removable (with hook and loop fasteners) for Easy Washing
ReplyDeleteNope, it's Velcroed on so you can't wash it yet.
The idea of wearable PC's would be a "benefit" from this sort of development. Though if I were to make a wearable PC I would probably make the built-in cameras watch your hands on a virtual keyboard, and so obviate the need for a keypad on your wrist.
I'm sure there are applications in flight suits and safety clothing. Imagine an embedded Geiger counter or temperature sensor to let you know what is going on.
