Description

Science faces the challenge of developing wearable intelligent clothing and devices that help people (re)learn skills. The spectrum of these wearable devices ranges from quasi-invisible technology integrated into the fabric to robots worn on the body. The potential is great, but which applications do we need in our society? We want to create a practical approach to this topic in order to then jointly identify areas of application that improve equal accessibility to working and learning environments for people of different genders, ages, cultural backgrounds or with physical disabilities. What skills are important in future societies to make available through a wearable device? What does the wearable device look and feel like?
