T-Shirt Lights Up When You Have New Email

C
hris and his wife Madeline make a t-shirt that lights up when you have new emails, and also tells you the number in your inbox.

Chris said: “Back in January, the fine people at Sparkfun Electronics helped out with that by running a Free Day where they gave away electronics worth USD $100k: $100 free, to 1000 people.”

“I was lucky to be one of the 1000 people, which put some electronics ideas within my reach that I otherwise would have found it hard to justify spending money on,” he added.

Using an Arduino Lilypad microcontroller, a few LEDs, conductive thread, and a Bluetooth dongle to communicate with an Android phone nearby (which has access to the inbox), Chris took a custom printed T-shirt and rigged up this badboy.
