There’s been talk about wearable computing for years now, but with news of a recent deal by Infineon to create chips that integrate into ordinary fabric, maybe we really will see MP3 players built into t-shirts. CNet has the story here.
From the story:
The most sophisticated prototype Infineon has created is a 1.25-inch-square MP3 player, controlled by a half-inch-square chip, that is woven into a jacket. The 8g unit uses a small battery and a multimedia card (MMC), but is otherwise invisible to the user, all its functions being controlled by voice commands.
