Sensor laden clothes alert users of nearby idiots

The InsideOut project provides a new early warning system for nervous city dwellers. Good thing it's so discreet.

Here at bit-tech we are forever trying to avoid our flocking fans. Really, the amount of groupies is more of a burden then you'd imagine. Thank the lord then that the inventive minds at the InsideOut Project have developed a suit to help us avoid such unwanted attention.

Essentially a sensor laden corset and scarf set, the suit is designed to alert wearers of situations they may want to avoid but not immediately notice.

Want to avoid stumbling into a crowd of pre-pubescent teenie boppers or want to be alerted if there are CCTV cameras nearby that may interfere with your nefarious schemes? This is the suit for you!

Worn beneath your normal clothes, the suit alerts users of their pre-selected anxieties by suddenly getting hot or cold. Or both if the pop-addicted children are all carrying video cameras.

Warned in advance, wearers are then able to avoid these situations or, more likely, they'll become more noticeable as they try to tear off their boiling hot clothes in the middle of the street.

Have something you want to say about this? Then pop into the forums and let us know -- it's completely and utterly safe. Honest.

Back on topic, this is great, can it be set to avoid babies and children? Cant stand babies screaming as there being pushed in there wheel chairs.

sounds like social name badges (you know the one's which where supposed to revolutionise socialising by matching interests and showing via LEDs those interests) only for negative things instead

Is this actually serious?
I dont get it at all.
How does it sense groups of 'chavs'... what...
This seems to me to be a complete waste of time and money, why would anyone want to wear this.
This has annoyed me, its so stupid if its real.

So it could be like your own personal a.c. or heater. That would be interesting and I suspect there'd be a bigger market.

Edit: "Sensor laden clothes alert users of nearby idiots" - what if the person wearing it is the idiot? :? Maybe we should just give those people suits that warn others.

I think RTT knew that.

My 'input' was actually more of a way of probing whether this really is an April fools or not without giving the game away to those that may have been duped.

Still, too late now ^ ...

I've arrived, everyone make room. My ego needs space to breathe.

I'm late because I've been attending to the groupie problem.

:o

Indeed, we need a review now! Have Tim send out the flying monkeys.

That'll prove the '4-days-late' argument, or not :)
