Designing and Prototyping Your Own Hyper-Body System
What is a hyper-body system and how can we make one? We will focus on designing and building low-fidelity and proof-of-concept prototypes for your hyper-body system, using components and microcontrollers suitable for your fashion tech item. This chapter will help you to choose the appropriate components for your purpose and to test your circuits. These are essential skills for creating working wearables and fashion tech pieces.
In this chapter, you will be consolidating the knowledge you’ve acquired in previous chapters to create a wearable technology project that is ambitious and exciting. We will learn about hyper-body systems and how to design one. Then, we’ll do some project planning and jump into an ambitious wearable using the Internet of Things (IoT).
By the end of this chapter, you will have completed a project that can be controlled by friends or family through the internet, and you will have your circuit...
