Can you imagine your dress changing color according to the time of a day or mood? It is no fairytale story. Just wait and watch. Technologies will soon gift us with next-generation threads that may give a whole new meaning to the phrase “change your clothes”. The advanced new fibers will be able to change color with a flip of a switch. Its cool!
I’m waiting for the day when the threads may be used to make clothing that suits the wearer’s mood or to allow a person to blend in with the environment!
These threads are created from materials known as electro-chromic polymers that change color in response to an electric current. Gregory Sotzing, a professor of polymer and organic chemistry at the University of Connecticut in Storrs informed on this magic fibers.
