ADAMM is a soft, flexible, waterproof, wearable Internet of Things (Iot) device, which communicates with a smart phone app and web portal using Bluetooth, WiFi, and cellular
- connections. It attaches to the upper
torso using skin-safe adhesive and tracks precursor symptoms of asthmatic attacks, including cough rate, respiration patterns, heartbeat, and body temperature.

Con8nuous Glucose Monitoring
“A device that provides continuous insight into glucose levels throughout the day and night. The device displays information about glucose direction and speed providing users additional information to help with their diabetes management.”
- 1. Sensor/transmitter placed under skin
- 2. Transmitter sends data to phone/
display device
- 3. Reveal real-time glucose info

An Enhanced Future?
Technological Wearables in ART & FASHION
HEART SYNC
CONNECTION. That idea of connection is a prominent theme that is present in the idea of wearables as fashion or art. Having people share the same experience as you without having to tell them, but having a piece of clothing with minds
- f their own acting as a shared link
Heart Sync
Sensoree
AWElectric
Inspired by the saying
“That gave me goosebumps. Did you feel it too? “
Much like heart sync, it shares the experience between two people, when you get goosebumps the wearable communicates with the other suit and transmit a chill down your spine to give the other person goosebumps
AWElectric
SAROTIS
It relates with space and proximity and how it then relates that information with the person’s body Not only can it be used as a performative piece, but it can also relate to architecture by relating to architecture through space an also may relate to VR

Wearables as a medium of entertainment
Orphe Smart Footwear
Orphe is a footwear with built-in motion sensor and LED sole. User may program the light, color, even sound by compatible application in
- smartphone. It introduces new
expression into dance, sport and art performance.
9-axis sensors contains acceleration/angular velocity/terrestrial magnetism and they will detect the motion of your legs.
SUBPAC
SUBPAC is a wearable technology that pulses sound through user’s body. It provides a high fidelity, full-body experience. Accurate, immersive, seated and portable – the SUBPAC S2 has become an essential tool for music production and enjoyment from the top studios in LA and London, to basement apartments and bedrooms worldwide. Once people can feel sound, they won’t go back to just hearing it.
It has three layers of immersion: Haptics: receptors on skin register vibrations on surface. Proprioception: receptors in muscle detect subtle change in force and pressure. Bone conduction: Vibrations pulse through bones to the inner ear and are sensed as hearing.
A must-have accessory for a complete VR experience, bringing you closer to immersion and presence, according to developer
DrumPants
This wearable isn't actually a pair of pants with drums. It's a set of accessories comprised
- f two elongated velocity
sensitive pads and two foot pedals you can tap to play different kinds of instruments. With the control knob and audio output you can produce sound of different instrument. You can wear them over or under your cloth
Virtual Reality
As the fastest developing wearable technology, virtual reality exemplify the significance
- f wearables in entertainment.
Virtual reality (VR) is a computer-generated scenario that simulates experience through vision or other senses. It’s usually achieved with a hardware like HTC Vive and Oculus Rift
A gyroscope, an accelerometer and a magnetometer are combined to measure the movement of your head on three axes. These movements are called pitch, yaw and
- roll. The scenario will rotate as you turn
your head. A position tracker, or base station ensures the scenario to move while you walk around the room. 24 similar sensors in the controller have the same effect. The base station must be in a fixed location in order to track your movement accurately, which is not so wearable. It can be improved in the future
