In today's modern society, we're surrounded by cellphones, computers and a wide variety of other electromagnetic gadgets. SmartSense is a company comprised of two mothers with concerns of the levels of radiation present in today's offices and homes. SmartSense's latest innovation is called the SmartSense Shawl. This [poncho-like outfit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heated-shawl) is worn by people while using devices such as [cellphones, laptops and other electromagnetic devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slnt-faraday-phone-sleeve). The shawl is made from a mixture of cotton fibers and a specialized anti-radioactive fabric. The shawl is finished in a matte black exterior that is stylish and functional.
