Following navigational jackets, these vibrating jeans are embedded with GPS technology. From Spinali Design, the Essential Vibrating Connected Jeans feature a sensor-equipped belt and can sync to your smartphone using Bluetooth.
The geolocation aspect will vibrate on the left or right side, offering you directions and otherwise integrating into your everyday life. 'Ping' allows wearers to customize the vibrations' intensity, frequency and duration, enabling you to further interact with your surroundings.
For example, the system can be programmed to alert you when you are late for a meeting or appointment. So in addition to navigational purposes, the vibrating jeans can be used for security, home support and child-tracking. The stylish garment could also be used to combat burnout in the workplace by setting time-based boundaries for tasks.
