Google smart jacket can now warn if you forgot your phone

Google and Levi’s Jacquard smart jacket has introduced a new function designed to stop you from mistakenly leaving your phone behind.

Not so long ago an American technology Google along with a global apparel brand Levi’s has developed a smart jacket. New smart clothing has incorporated a special device, something like a mini-computer called Computer Trucker. In fact, the jacket is the most common, which are many, but developed by Google ATAP technology, Jacquard Technology completely replaces the smartphone.

The Jacquard app already introduced a manual “find your phone” feature this time last year. That let you assign a gesture to your jacket that, when performed, would trigger your phone to start ringing at full volume. While that was a fine way to track down a handset gone astray, it wasn’t much help until you realized your phone was missing in the first place.

It’s a neat addition for the smart jacket, which can already use touch inputs to control things on your smartphone like music controls and navigation pings within Google Maps. Earlier this year, an update in the Jacquard platform introduced a handful of other functions, like support for ride-sharing alerts and pin drops on a map to save locations.
