MyWear at the ICE conference - 23 June

The MyWear project will be presented at the ICE 2014 conference during a workshop entitled: Embedded sensors, smart and innovative services for personalised products.

Join us for the workshop on Monday 23 June, from 14.00 to 15.30. The full ICE Conference takes place on 23-24-25 June 2014, in Bergamo, an inspiring town in the middle of Lombardy Region, in Northern Italy.

A short description of the workshop scope:
Today consumer goods like clothing, footwear, sportswear have the untapped potential to escape from being traditional products by mean of innovative services like sensing the status of customer well-being, functional materials etc to offer safe and healthy conditions for applications like work and sport. This paper session aims to discuss innovative approaches to make Smart product concepts into reality. For example, how to turn rigid electronic parts into stretchy, smart clothing material. How to interact with services and technology through clothing. Can we go beyond swiping a hand across a coat sleeves to adjust the volume of a connected music player? What are the services to be created upon the data collected through integrated sensor technology, for the public in general but specifically for elderly, obese, diabetics and disabled? To what extent does new generation of green, safe, healthy and smart work wear and sport wear products need to be customised to individual needs?

Full program is in development. We will post it when available.
