The More Pollution In The Air, The More This Dress Glows

Being one of only two laydees on Gizmodo, I feel justified in saying this dress is hot. Though not as hot as we’ll be if global warming gets its way, unless more people pay attention to eco-friendly inventions like this.

Dozens of LEDs sprinkled across this dress concept light up, and actually blink faster when the microprocessor and carbon dioxide detection unit (hidden in the dress bustle, I presume) recognises pollution in the air. No, they don’t make underwear versions, though I’m sure some of the men reading this could do with their “air pollution” being monitored. [Diffus via The Coolist]

    Well I hope it run on eco friendly power too. If it were batteries that would just make me sad :(

    Interesting concept! i would have preferred the reverse… more glow for cleaner air!!! lets be positive ;) and material made out of solar collecting material to power it.

    on another note whats with the sexist comment “I’m sure some of the men reading this could do with their “air pollution” being monitored” correct me if im wrong but isnt this part of the bod’ys natural function… additionally don’t women do this function too?
