Kinetic Dress

A wearable robotic dress that moves along its choreography - a part of a fashion editorial video. The dress wirelessly lifts up and down, according to the section of the music, constraining or freeing the dancer.

Mechanism inspired by Hussein Chalayan's Coffee Table dress and a roman blind.

Tech stack: Arduino R4 WiFi for wireless computing, stepper motor for lifting, and TouchDesigner for the control interface.
