This is the kind of future tech that seems like it should still be in sci-fi. Instead of an embedded chip/machine like we normally expect in "wearables," this is a fiber running through the entire thing that's so thin it's basically imperceptible and can survive machine washing.

Mind you, given the current state of surveillance tech, I'm not sure I want any clothing that tracks my vitals unless I can control exactly where that info goes (and doesn't go), but I do find the concept really nifty.

I don’t want my clothes to understand me.

I wouldn't mind something that could, for example, heat up a bit if it sensed my body temp dropping, though. I could see some cool uses. Just have huge privacy concerns, of course.

That would be pretty cool.

Interesting, but I think we are getting to the point where too much is being tracked (smartphone, ring doorbell, google nest, alexa, wearable smart watches, etc.)

I don't think this is cool to experiment on, but wouldn't want a Lulu or an Alo to adopt on their entire lineup.
