Project Soli was also introduced at #IO2015. In short it’s an interactive sensor that uses radar signals to capture the smallest gestures. That’s why it can be used in interactive mirrors, virtual fitting rooms and wearable technology. I’m super excited to see this technology in use, especially in the fashion industry. The questions are: will Google sell the sensor itself, when will this happen, and who else is working on a similar technology.

I also teach as a guest lecturer at AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków (Virtual Communities) and at Lazarski University (New Technologies in Fashion). Through GeekGoesChic, I write, speak, and create content on fashion business, the future of fashion, and of course, new technologies in the fashion industry. Sometimes I appear in the media or contribute guest articles on fashion tech. I also host the podcast “The Future of Fashion at GeekGoesChic”, where I interview inspiring guests from the fashion world. I’ve had the honor of working with brands such as MasterCard, Google, Allegro, PayPal, Converse, Glamour Poland, Orange, and Elle.pl. I’d be happy to share my knowledge with you and your company.
