Smart Clothes & Wearable TechnologyThis research group is a collaboration between the University of Wales, Newport and the National Centre for Product Design and Development Research (PDR) at UWIC, working to create the 'smart' clothes of the future. The project was launched in November 2004 with a workshop involving leading industry representatives, that mapped initial areas for development.
The group looks at the role of wearable technology and how it can be deployed to create near market prototypes, examining motivations and commercial possibilities, in areas such as sport and fitness, corporate wear and inclusive design.
In 2005 we held an international conference Wearable Futures, attended by representatives from academia and industry. With more than 60 papers, posters and performances taking place over three days.
