Google recently filed a patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for a “gesture control system” to work with smart clothing. Certain gestures made over the interactive clothing would allow individuals to control gadgets to perform certain junctions such as answering a phone call, dismissing a text message etc. A jacket prototype has been created in conjunction with Levi using the smart technology in the cuff strap. It is expected to be some time before we could expect to see such garments commercially available if they ever make it into mass production as the patent has only just been filed.
