Created touch t-shirt that allows you to learn to fly a plane
Source:
A team of researchers from the University of Tokyo recently unveiled a special touch t-shirt, able to record movement and even, according to the creators, improve your sports skills and learn to operate a motorcycle, car and even plane.
T-Shirt is equipped with many sensors that detect human movement and sending information to the mobile device. A startup of scientists from Tokyo has called Xenoma. The main feature of this high tech clothing is of high recognition accuracy of movements and internal condition of the body without the use of cameras. Scope t-shirt is huge. Most modern motion capture technology based on the use of cameras, but the t-shirt from Xenoma uses 14 sensors located across the surface.
According to the researchers, the shirt can be safely washed and she will not lose their functions even after many washings. For use in training t-shirt may de only to capture but also to transmit signals to the man to «supporting» what movements you need to do and how to do them effectively to perform the necessary actions. As stated by the development team leader Ichiro Amamori
«New t-shirt does not restrict movement — it is comfortable to wear, like any other clothing. In the future we would like to create an analogue which would allow us to monitor the cardiac activity of a person or, for example, the level of glucose in the blood. In addition, with the help of our high-tech devices can even control the character in the video games».
