You’ve heard it before, smoking is bad for your health. However, despite the countless warnings, millions of people continue to use cigarettes–including 7th grade student Petter’s dad. Mindful of this, the young Maker came up with a new way to shame smokers into quitting. The aptly named “Cigarette Smoke Detecting Shirt” consists of an Arduino LilyPad, a smoke […]
Cosmic Bitcasting is a digital art and science project emerging from the idea of connecting the human body with the cosmos by creating a wearable device with embedded light, sound and vibration that will provide sensory information on the invisible cosmic radiation that surrounds us. This open-source project actually works by detecting secondary muons generated by cosmic rays hitting the […]
My Air, My Health was the title of a Challenge calling innovators to work on a wearable project integrating air-quality measurement with heart rate and breathing. The promoters of the challenge, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the National Institute of Environmental Health Services (NIH), launched it because they think that the possibility of […]
Yesterday we spent 8 hours learning and experimenting with Arduino Lilypad and 20 cool participants during our workshop, organized in collaboration with Kobakant! Here you can take a look at some pictures and below a short video report made by Makerfaire Rome crew. Are you working at a wearable project and you want to share […]

RUAH is an interactive corset powered by Arduino Lilypad and created by Giulia Tomasello for her BA graduation project. Its main aim is to help people into learning the importance and the benefits of a deep diaphragmatic breathing. The circuit is composed by a sensor sewn on an elastic belt and an actuator placed inside the […]
I’m reblogging from Core77 this interesting wearable project because I’d like to highlight the using of Arduino Lilypad board: Bio Circuit stems from our concern for ethical design and the creation of media-based interactions that reveal human interdependence with the environment. With each beat of the heart, Bio Circuit connects the wearer with the inner […]
Ruffletron is a prototype of a wearable musical interface and an experiment in performative interaction. The project has been developed by a textile designer, Lara Grant, in collaboration with the sound engineer Cullen Miller. For prototyping purpose, Lara used a LilyPad Arduino, Maxuino, Osculator and Ableton Live. Project details here.
We are happy to announce the first wearable kit on the Arduino Store . This kit has been made by Plug’n’Wear specifically for us. All fabrics in this kit are produced in Italy, and strongly related to a textile family business. If you want to get deeper into the story of this product have a look […]
Fashionable Technology Performance_ Interactive Necklace from Sylvia Yang on Vimeo. In an age of geekifying, everything electronics entering fashion is not something new. But the subtle difference between doing something classy and over doing is set apart by the talented designer Sylvia Yang. A designer’s draft of the design + components (we can see a […]
