Coming up with a new, but an effective idea is difficult. It's easy to replicate ideas, but coming up with something unique, and better than its alternatives is what we united to do.

Chemise has been in the pipeline for a while now. We wanted to achieve smartphone-level interaction with a device, that could be portable, accessible and cheap. We decided to integrate the circuitry of a keyboard, 3-layer membrane along with a microcontroller, into a regular shirt. We mapped various keys of the keyboard, to various functions. When the user presses a specific key on his shirt, the input is recognised by Raspberry Pi Zero-W, through a Python script being run in the background at all times.

We've created an Android application, which fetches the stored data directly from the Firebase and performs the necessary functionality in the device. This product is inspired by Google's Project Jacquard.

These are the product's main features-
