2nd Wearable Technologies Conference
July 7, 2008
Sofitel Bayerpost

 

           

Wearable Technologies refer to garments with built-in electronics or electronic devices and to new materials that enable functions far beyond conventional ranges of applications. Former visions are now becoming marketable products: Jackets with built-in GPS functions or solar panels, bluetooth communication gloves or jerseys that monitor your heart rate, measure sportive performance are no longer dreams of the future. The pioneering conference built a bridge between the fashion and high-tech industry and focuses on decision makers and experts from commerce, production and science, in particular from the fields of sports, fashion, electronics and consumer electronics. Moreover, this unique event was aimed at encouraging a dialog between the respective industries and at uniting new user groups, such as the electronics and communications industry, with the textile industry. It also showed in what way a combination of sports, fashion and lifestyle with current trends of the electronics industry can create an added value for clients and increase the turnover potential on both sides.
