And that’s basically it!
The technology they are proposing to develop to do this sounds pretty sick tho:
""" weavable conductive polymer “wires”, energy harvesters powered by the body, ultra-low power printable computers on cloth, microphones that behave like threads, and “scrunchable” batteries that can function after many deformations. """
However they don't seem to have any of that tech yet:
"In order to transfer this research into AST products, revolutionary new materials and manufacturing techniques are needed to develop complete and integrated systems containing mechanically deformable and durable: 1) power sources, 2) sensors, 3) computation and data storage, and 4) electrically conductive system component “wires” and interconnects."
Which government? Don’t assume the US to be THE universal government. 😀
