A smart jacket that wirelessly accesses your phone
The latest advancement in wearable technology comes in the form of a Levi?s? Commuter? Trucker jacket designed with Google ATAP?s Project Jacquard technology woven in. With a simple touch of a jacket sleeve, cyclists can wirelessly access their phone and favorite mobile apps to adjust music volume, silence a phone call or get an estimated ETA on their destinations. http://www.digitaltrends.com/wearables/commuter-jacket-levis-google/?
