Temperature sweater puts some high tech gear in your closet

tempsweater.jpgThis might look like a regular old fleece sweater, but it's got a bit more technology on board than your average warmth-providing garment. It actually has two LED screens, one on each sleeve, and built in thermometers to tell the temperature. One sleeve gives the temperature in Fahrenheit, the other in Celsius.

I'm sure it'd be useful in loads of situations. You know, like if you want to know how hot or cold it is wherever you are. Or if you've somehow lost the feeling in your skin and want to go outside and then report back inside on what the weather's like without letting people know about your awkward skin paralysis condition. Or, uh, many other situations, I'm sure. Whatever, it's a sweater with LED screens! It's just cool.

We definitely will be seeing much more tech like this being introduced into our new products.

While I applaud its modern sensibilities, I find this a bit obsolete. Why? Because there are multifunction wristwatches that can be purchased with thermometers built in that will provide the same effect, allow you do it more stylishly and multi-task more than this piece of clothing. Nice try though.

That's very uh...useful...I guess.

Is that a circuit board in her left hand?

ummmm... what happens when it's put through a 30 or 40 degree C cycle in the washing machine?
