pic5494yy7 Leah Buechleys Cyclist Signal Jacket

Leah Buechley is a designer/inventor who has regaled guests of SigGraphs past with various illuminating, acoustical, vibrational or otherwise technologically enhanced apparel. This time, she’s created a jacket which has built in turn signals for cyclists.

Actually, I think there could be a pretty sick implementation of such a system…

Of course, on Lung, it would look like someone’s playing Dance Dance Revolution on his back with an invisibility cloak on them… or something…
