e-motion
'e-motion' investigates the use of wearable technology to create new forms of non-verbal communication for males by measuring physiological responses from the body and expressing them as visual, dynamic displays. The garments use sensors to detect emotions of love, anger, fear, joy and sadness and react by emulating the physical manifestations of these emotions through lights. By enabling an opportunity for men to be more openly expressive, the stereotypical expectations of masculinity can change; instead of hiding them away, feelings can be displayed as interactive gestures.
