It collects data from the shirt’s stretchable sensors and transmits it to the “hub,” which uses a bluetooth to send the data for remote analysis. The technology also tracks biometric data related to limb strain, respiration and posture, meaning these shirts could be used to perfect a golf swing, help a factory worker or even interact in virtual reality.</p><p>The manufacturer says that comfort, durability and washability are key for the technology to move from the research to reality. In hope of sparking innovation and attracting new applications, E-skin is open-sourcing the technology.</p><p>But wear and beware: once clothes capture your data, where does it get delivered?<b></b></p></p><br /> <p>The post This Smart Shirt Collects Basically All Of Your Biometric Data</a> appeared first on Vocativ</a>.</p>
