      You get the dress but have to subscribe to Dress Cloud for $50/mo and if you decide to discontinue it the dress randomly turns into a 90s era WB shirt and locks itself that way until you re-up

    This article desperately needs video.

    Here’s the official video from Adobe. Bump to 45s into the vid to see the dress in action:

    you know you are talking to an engineer when they say

    Non-emissive material with reflective light-diffuser modules

    instead of “mirrors”

      I believe most mirrors can’t turn their reflectivity on and off based on an electric current.

      I could be totally wrong about mirrors though

    For some reason I’m not super impressed with this. Looks too much like you’re wearing e-ink panels. Call me when these are fully functioning OLEDs that kinetically charge when you walk.

        I’m sure orchestrating this isn’t super easy (however, if you treat every “display” as a “pixel”, Idk how this coding is different than a woman wearing a dress made of addressable LEDs— on the surface it doesn’t seem super complicated engineering), but it appears as unimpressive.

          EInk and monochrome LCD Type Displays need very low power, because you only need a tiny bit to switch them from one side to the other, but none to keep it black or white.
