More than just a fad, wearable technology (WT) can change the way we work and give us 'super powers' -- according to a new study in the International Journal of Fashion Design, Technology and Education. Deepika Raj and Jung E Ha-Brookshire of the University of Missouri interviewed people employed in the WT industry -- with its unique collaboration between apparel and technology specialists -- to find out how creating the devices changed the way they worked. They also wanted to find out what the designers themselves thought of the items they were creating.
