Apple is developing a version of Siri that would allow us to control televisions, but until then we might have something much better and closer to "our soul". Two students of an American university they conceived a t-shirt that would allow us to control the TV very simply and easily by simply pressing some "buttons" drawn on it. Those buttons have electrical wires under them that are specially stretched to replicate the shape of the main buttons on a remote control and simply pressing them should give a command to the TV just like a regular remote control.
Using a Remote control T-Shirt turns yourself into the control master of your TV and I guess you will bring fun to your family using you to switch channels. Rebecca made the Remote Control T-Shirt together with classmate Ben Tsang during their Junior year project at the University of Art. The team did not use very advanced eTextile materials, using ordinary cable to run through the garment and liberating the electronic remote control from it's hard shell plastic housing.
The t-shirt was made by a student as part of a project for the university and probably worked when it was designed, but for now there are no plans that would indicate that it will ever be transformed into a product that could be purchased in stores. In conclusion, do you choose Siri or such a shirt for your TV?
