About this product
Product Information
This pioneering introduction to the world of wearable technology takes readers beyond the practical realm (think Fitbits, Apple Watches, and smartglasses) to consider another important side of the technology-the playful. Playful Wearables offers an engaging account of what "playful wearables" are, why they matter, how they work, how they're made, and what their future might hold. The book's authors draw on decades of experience in design, development, and research to offer real-world examples, exercises, and implications, showing how this kind of wearable tech can introduce an invaluable element of play into our everyday lives. As wearable technology emerges in the ecology of costume and fashion, the authors consider its intimate connection to identity and culture. And they look at the ways in which playful wearables, when smoothly integrated into everyday social experiences, support social interaction. The book then moves on to the mechanics of playful wearables-from design strategies and frameworks to specific methods and game design patterns. All of these elements point to possibilities beyond the realm of games and dedicated play, as the value and uses of playful wearables in the larger world of self, society, and culture become ever more apparent.

I've been buying a lot on auction from this seller - - over 50 tarot decks in the past few months. Everything arrives on time and as described. They have always been both kind and prompt when answering questions, resolving issues etc. They are a really trustworthy seller and wonderful to deal with. In this era where everybody gets five stars, they deserve at least six.
