HONG KONG – A team of researchers at the Hong Kong-based Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence in Design (AiDLab) has developed a new AI-driven textile technology that could be used to alter the colour of garments.
The fabric, which is knitted with a blend of textile yarns and polymeric optical fibres (POFs), can be illuminated in a range of different colours and, according to the research teams could potentially reduce clothing waste by giving people more colour choices from a single garment.
