    I was surprised they were talking about an industrial use for it. I would think this would also be a great accessibility feature.

      Also you can link it to HomeAssistant so when you unzip you can set an automation to lock your door, dim your lights, play Kenny G, and activate your touchless tissue dispenser.

      Before being an accessibility product, the tech has to prove itself. I wouldn’t want to be the guinea pig for a product that could, if malfunctions, trap me in my jacket. But, yes, once proven, this would be an amazing application of the tech.

        This plus those wearable battery things that recharge with movement could be super cool. Or just plug into a wheelchair battery or something.
