Theres a major movement going on in the electronics and computer industries to develop wearable devices for whats being called the postPC era. We are now at the dawn of that era, and some of these devices are already making their way to the consumer market. Despite the small size and portability of these devices, they are still noticeable and arent always very aesthetically pleasing. The next phase of this postPC era will be to integrate computers and other devices directly into our clothing, so that they are virtually invisible.In the next few years, we might be filling our closets with smart shirts that can read our heart rate and breathing, and musical jackets with built in allfabric keypads. Thin lightemitting diode LED monitors could even be integrated into this apparel to display text and images. Computerized clothes will be the next step in making computers and devices portable without having to strap electronics to our bodies or fill our pockets with a plethora of gadgets. These new digital clothes arent necessarily designed to replace your PC, but they will be able to perform some of the same functions.
