LumiGram Fiber Optic Fabric.

By Alex in Fashion, Pictures on Dec 6, 2006 at 12:51 am


From the website:

This technology allows to wave plastic optical fibers alongside synthetic fibers, forming a luminous fabric. The luminous fabric is similar to a synthetic fabric (it can be sewn, hand washed,…), except that it can emit light when connected to a specific electronic module. This electronic module can be powered either by a disposable or rechargeable battery, or by a small mains transformer (for non wearable items).

Unlike standard optical fibers, the fiber optic fabric emits light along the full lenght of the fibers.

    If this can be adapted to weather conditions, you will see it in Christmas light displays next year.

    It's so beautiful but there's no way I'd be able to wear it...I'd look like the giant light ball they drop at Times Square on New Year's Eve.
