I actually got a Levi's / google jacquard trucker jacket (on a good sale). It had potential but Google never seemed to do anything with it. It's pretty inconspicuous already but the Google app for it is very limited. If they open source it I think we could have some fun with the tech.

I tried reading the product page an I feel like I'm having a stroke... How hard can it be to explain what it actually is? So far I roughly got "tracker that connects to a trucker jacket". WHAT? And then all it was was basically a touch sensor for your jacket sleeve, that you can use to control your phone.
