BendiNewsTest: This Clothing Staple Lets You Make Simple Gestures to Send a Text

Hi,

This page is currently being developed. This page checks Sustainability Blogs and RSS News Feeds for new content and posts it to here each day. The aim is to share information related to sustainability which is relevant to people living in Central Victoria while also providing a channel for international sustainability information. I am just discovering the Internets information sharing potential. I'd like to help other not so tech savvy people learn how to find interesting and new Sustainability info. Please tell me your favorite blogs or news sources and I will add them to the list.

Thanks

This Clothing Staple Lets You Make Simple Gestures to Send a Text

Talk-to-text and Swype are great and all, but what if you could get your message across by simply touching your sleeve? That’s the idea behind the Smart Hoodie, the genius idea from students at NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications Program. The hoodie acts as a sort of wearable texting app, allowing you to make different gestures to send messages on your cell phone without ever having to type a single letter. Touching the hood sends a love message while tugging the sleeve says that you are busy, turning your clothing into true expression.
