player. Songs can be chosen and volume altered by pressing the soft keys on the sleeve, without the need to access the iPod itself [66]. Further, the ElekTex ® fabric touchpad has been used by several companies to launch jackets and backpacks. For example the American apparel manufacturer Kenpo Inc, used the ElekTex ® in a men’s jacket for the winter season 2005/2006. Also O’Neill uses ElekTex ® in its range of H2 series backpacks and jackets. More examples can be found in [38]. Recently, Burton Snowboards and Motorola Inc. launched a series of Bluetooth-enabled winter jackets, the Burton Audex Snowboard jackets. In the sleeve of the jacket one can find an integrated control panel, which allows remote operation of the wearer’s phone or iPod. Additionally, the jacket features integrated stereo speakers in the hood, a microphone and chest/battery module embedded within the inside pocket of the jacket. However, these components still stay hard plastic devices. Fig. 24 The Burton Audex TM Snowboard jacket [67] In the drawing above the Audex components are illustrated, which get attached to the jacket. The wearer must ensure that the components are not exposed to moisture and thus they must be carefully removed before washing. The jacket is available in three different styles as a cargo jacket, a down jacket and a duffle jacket for woman. All three styles can be bought for $599.95 at the Burton website [67]. Together with a designer of the University of Applied Sciences in Berlin and Hugo Boss, the Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration (IZM) has developed a communications jacket. It shows how electronics can be integrated into clothing and illustrates the idea of separating the input/output devices from the intelligent part of the system. The latter allows further miniaturising the intelligent part while the system remains usable in terms of display size and keypad size. The purely 33
textile keypad has been developed by ITA at Aachen University of Technology. All the connections between the modules have been embroidered with silver coated polyamide fibres. The display is connected to the jacket via snaps and can be removed simply for washing [68, 69]. Fig. 25 Communications jacket with textile pad [69] The English design Consultancy Goose Design and the product design agency PDD revealed a concept for a new cycling jacket that combines safety and fashion. The ILLUM jacket is based on technologies including printed electroluminescent ink and printed photovoltaic technology (solar power). The functional parts are arranged all around the jacket and cut into several ergonomic panels with red light at the back, while at the front and the photovoltaic source at the shoulders and top of the back [70].
