Networked clothing - The Flirtskirt


An artsy project with a social backdrop. That was the idea behind the Flirtskirt. The apparel features tri-color Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that wearers can adjust to their mood or preference. The wireless sensors on the skirts makes the light pulsate and change color when it senses another user equipped with the same brand. The concept is to use technology to create conversations and common interests like when two strangers walking dogs or using the same brand of technology are more likely to strike up a conversation.
When two wearers start mingling the apparels start to change color and the in the end they will share a common colormix.
