Hi tech dress

by David Allen on Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

This takes dressing for work to a new level, this is a dress made up of around 448 circuit boards each with its own solar cell, LED or photo cell, there is also a control board and USB ports, and essentially it is a computer that you wear.

Future directions:

Experimenting with different interconnections (ring sizes & materials) and final shapes

Adding new electronic components (GPS, OLED, accelerometer)

Adding a “brain board” adjacent to the existing control board to allow programmability by third parties

Updating micro-controller code wirelessly

Publishing complete source code, schematics, board layouts, test software, assembly techniques

Enhancing testing/sequencing software (MAX, Flash, Java)

Applying techniques and methodology learned to new materials and processes
