Super quick fabric circuit

[googfan] sent us in his latest project. He has made a shirt with a circuit sewn in. It is crude, and probably won’t last long, but the end product is pretty cool. You can see a stencil of the functioning circuit on the front of the shirt. He has threaded wire in, along the circuit and attached the LEDs, transistors, capacitors, and resistors on their individual symbols. The final product isĀ shirt with a giant circuit diagram on the front that actually works. Yes, we know he could have screen printed it and used the LilyPad, but really this entire project could probably be done with parts most of us already have laying around, and in short time too. You can see a video of the shirt in action after the break.
You may recall the last time we heard from 13 year old [googfan], he was turning camcorder viewfinders into osciliscopes.

Thats one way of getting you shot at the airport…
