The principle is I put a little compass inside the shirt and add four light sensor on each direction on the dial, when any of them is covered by the needle then the lights repersent that direction turn on.

384 Project2 Sketch: Directional shirt
This is the first draft of my wearable object, the function of it is to show which direction you towards to. I'll use many leds on this shirt, they will light up when you face due south, due east, due west and due north

Miruko, wearable tech for gaming
The main objective of the robot system is to extend our body and sensing ability.
The eyeball robot has a wi-fi module in order to communicate with host computer or with other devices
and has a wireless CMOS camera embedded in the iris of the robot.
By using this robotic interface and iphone, we realized virtual monster capturing game in real world

Robotic jacket has power up its sleeve
Wearable technology may sometimes come off as little more than a gimmick (consider the video belt buckle). But for some people, it can mean something entirely different--regaining abilities lost to injury or illness.
This prototype "power jacket" from Matsushita Electric Industrial (parent of consumer electronics company Panasonic) is designed to help patients recover from partial paralysis. Sensors at the elbow and wrist allow a healthy arm to control the eight artificial muscles, which are powered by compressed air, on the paralyzed side. The 4-pound robotic jacket was on display Wednesday at the Home Care and Rehabilitation Exhibition in Tokyo.
