The wearable, foldable and washable fabric is capable of flashing messages or images
At first glance, the fabric looks like a pretty if not especially original scarf, with turquoise, blue and orange stripes in an open weave. But this fabric can communicate.
It's wearable, foldable and washable, but it's also a fully functioning display -- capable of flashing messages or images, or even being used with a keyboard.
The fabric, described in a study in the journal Nature on Wednesday, is the work of a team led by Huisheng Peng, a professor in the department of macromolecular engineering at Shanghai's Fudan University.
