Technology is changing almost every industry, including fashion. Imagine wearing a computer in the form of clothing, like a jacket. Now it is possible. The clothing manufacturer Levi Strauss & Co. partnered with technology company Google to create what is being called a “smart” jacket. The word smart is often used to describe actions controlled by a computer. What makes this jacket “smart” is washable technology added to the cuff -- the cloth encircling the wrist. Ivan Poupyrev heads the smart clothing project for Google. When somebody calls you, your jacket vibrates and gives you lights and [you] know somebody is calling you. A touch on the cuff can provide directions for helping you get to where you need to go. The jacket also can play music when combined with a mobile phone, headphones and a small piece of removable computer hardware.
