Sensible clothing stretches the imagination Sensible, sensing clothing are a fascinating topic which has got the intention of a highly creative team which integrates Merlin Stretch Sensor into beautifully designed garment to sense the wearers movement.

The movement data can then be used for various purposes like interaction with a garments appearance, interaction with other smart sensing garments or interaction with the environment. The project is called ‘Aeolia‘ with the purpose to explore concepts of our bodily engagement with the land and ideas of space and place. Each of the back forms incorporate the Merlin stretch sensor into an aesthetic exploration of textile technique mapped to the body – weave (grey), knit (white) and embroidery (black). The knit samples use a Bekaert yarn with standard shirring elastic to create an experimental stretch sensor based on the changing length of the conductive path. A Merlin Stretch Sensor measures stretch, displacement, compression and force.

How about a 3D printer? The Fayetteville Free Library, a public library in upstate New York, plans to offer its community both options: A traditional, book-filled library, and a Fab Lab to learn new technologies and build new projects. In recent years, the FFL’s Executive Director Susan Considine has been pushing for a reinterpretation of libraries’ role. “Libraries exist to provide access to opportunities for people to come together to learn, discuss, discover, test, create. Transformation happens when people have free access to powerful information, and new and advanced technology. " This forward-thinking attitude has helped the FFL continue to grow, adding an AV-enabled meeting room, tutoring spaces and even a coffee shop. This brilliant idea, a.k.a. the FFL Fab Lab, is the brainchild of Lauren Britton Smedley, FFL's director of Transliteracy Development.
