“抱抱装”(Hugging Dress)被2006年11月6日的《时代》杂志评为“2006年创意新发明”。它是一种能让人感觉到被拥抱的衣服,这种上衣采用高科技布料制成,能模仿被爱人拥抱的感觉。当朋友通过短信传给你一个“拥抱”信息,手机会通过蓝牙技术(Bluetooth technology) “通知”衣服,它随即能把这个拥抱完整传递给你。这种衣服可以储存多名亲
友拥抱的力度、维持时间,甚至亲友的心跳节奏。更为实用的是,这种衣服能洗涤反复使用。
"Hugging Dress" was named by Time magazine on November 6, 2006 as "the Most Innovative New Invention in 2006". It's a garment that can make people sense the feeling of being hugged. The dress is made of high-tech fabrics that can mimic the feeling of being hugged by loved ones. When a friend passes to you a "hug" message via SMS, the mobile phone can "notice" this dress via Bluetooth technology; then it gives you the full feeling of being hugged. This dress can memorize the strength and the time of hugs by several friends and relatives, even including their heartbeats. The more practical feature is that this dress can be washed for repeated use.
