Google’s next ‘Project Jacquard’ with EA and Adidas
Project Jacquard is Google’s vision of embedding computing in clothes, bags and accessories. The idea is to bring touch-sensitive fabric to the mainstream. The software giant first showed the Jacquard fabric at Google I/O 2015.
The first product under the ‘Project Jacquard’ was the smart jacket made by Google and Levi’s. It came with Bluetooth and conductive threads to communicate with a smartphone app. The jacket was expensive at $350, and it never made a splash in the market.
