Futuristic 'Green' Fabric That Works Like a Smartphone Unveiled by Scientists
A new substance developed by a team of Chinese scientists that works like a smartphone could have applications in communication, navigation, healthcare, and security. SWNS The high-tech garment could improve safety for cyclists, drivers and emergency services. For example, the brush on a sleeve could instantly display a “fabric card” on its arm. The inexpensive material turns a jacket into a touchscreen - and according to the SWNS news agency, it could be in stores by Christmas. Powered by solar energy, it combines conductive and luminescent fibers with cotton. Wearable technology has been promised for years, but creating large displays that are built into functional systems has proven difficult. Researchers at Fudan University in Shanghai spectacularly tackled this problem with a display fabric nearly 20 feet long and 10 inches wide.
