“The smart jacket was made up of denim fabric which can be washed, in the same way, that traditional dirty and used trousers are done”. Said the Ivan Poupyrev at the developer conference Google I/O 2016. But, Ivan Poupyrev also added that “we are not making smart pants.” Instead, it’s the “Levi’s commuter trucker jacket.” You can touch the sleeve of your jacket while you’re, say, biking, to control your phone. You can answer a phone call or block a phone call, and do a bit more, too”. Making of the Smart Jacket

Moreover, the reports also confirmed that this smart jacket will also work with Spotify, Google Maps, Strava, and Google. Hence, the tech giant Google will soon release the APIs so the developers can use it as soon as possible. As we mentioned earlier that with the Project Jacquard, the tech giant Google shows that it is possible to change the music, turn up the volume and even forward a call without ever seeing the phone out of your pocket. Paul Dillinger, the vice president of innovation Levi’s, adding that “decided to place the smart fabric on the wrist of the smart jacket so that the user can easily access, especially the drivers of motorcycles and bicycles in the urban areas”. So, with the swipe of the hand on this fabric, the user can easily answer a call by Bluetooth, raise or lower the volume to music and to ask for the directions as we mentioned earlier. As in this promotional video, you can see the denim jacket with an area sensitive to finger movements fibers and small touches that -through the application to control Jacquard- services such as calls, text messages, Google Maps, and Spotify, among others.
