CuteCircuit.
At CuteCircuit we are working on making technology that is more usable, emotionally fulfilling, and fun! We think that wearables will be the future tool for personal communication, like a dynamic surface around our bodies able to connect us to people and places. The most used communication tool today is the mobile phone. We believe that the wearable technology and the telecommunication market will merge in a not very distant future, many of our wearables are compatible via Bluetooth with mobile phones, this allows for a faster deployment and adoption of this technology.
Especially,
The Hug Shirt, a wearable Bluetooth accessory for your mobile phone. The Hug Shirt allows to exchange the physical sensation of being hugged over distance through telecommunication networks
and
The KineticDress, part of the Transfor-Me collection developed for the NEMO Science museum in Amsterdam. The KineticDress changes color and pattern depending on the activity of the wearer.
The book, Fashioning the Future.
