German designer Markus Kison has introduced a digitally-enabled burqa that can transmit a photo, or anything else, of the wearer to nearby mobile phones. Kison calls it the CharmingBurka, and claims that the garment isn’t forbidden by Sharia or Islamic law.

Reportedly, the high tech burqa has a “digital layer” that includes a Bluetooth antenna, which lets women “decide for themselves where they want to position themselves virtually.”
