Eco Factor: Hi-tech dress monitors the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Danish design company Diffus has come up with an LED-equipped Climate Dress that responds to the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by glowing accordingly. The dress is powered by an Arduino Lilypad microprocessor and a carbon dioxide detector.
The dress features conductive embroidery that transmits information to the hand-stitched set of LEDs to create an illumination pattern according to the concentration of the pollutants. The light patterns vary from slow pulses to rapid flashes, and the dress was designed to create awareness of environmental issues.
