Oct 29 2023 - What else might we be wearing?

 

It got me wondering what other things are people wearing that I hadn't thought of.  Welcome to the world of weird wearables!  That's one of the headlines.  9 Wonderfully weird wearable devices, 21 weird and wacky wearables you'll actually want, and so on.  

I think I found the best article:

Nestle's Tweeting bra raises breast cancer awareness in 140 characters.  How it works is simple: whenever it’s unhooked, it sends a tweet; something along the lines of  “Maria has just unhooked her bra. When you do the same, don’t forget about your self-exam.”

The Hovding Cycling Airbag Might Make Bike Helmets Obsolete. It’s a wearable airbag that springs to life to protect the wearer’s head, neck, and shoulders in the event of an accident – it’s often more effective than a traditional helmet in the case of the former.

The Ritot Watch Tells Time on the Back Of Your Hand.  Ritot is a new piece of technology known as a projection watch. Resembling a simple sports bracelet, a simple tap or shake of one’s hand will cause the device’s internal pico projector to spring to life, projecting the time onto the back of the wearer’s hand. It can also be synced with a smartphone to display details such as text messages, caller ID, weather alerts, social media alerts, and emails. 

Diffus Is A Dress That Informs Its Wearer of Harmful Pollutants. The dress contains sensors which measure the Carbon Dioxide concentration in the air. Depending on how much CO2 there is, it’ll activate LEDS woven into the fabric, creating a light show that ranges from slow to hectic and chaotic.

I realize I've missed the Hamilton Chrysanthemum Show.  Here are some pictures from a past show.
