Scientists have developed a groundbreaking type of smart fabric that can be used to control electronic devices without touch.
The fabric contains tiny, flexible "magnetoresistive" sensors that respond to magnetic fields and allow users to interact with the fabric by wearing a small magnet.
Unlike traditional touch-sensitive fabrics, this new technology is more reliable and does not activate accidentally by rubbing against surfaces.
The fabric is machine-washable, durable, and has various potential applications in fields such as fashion, gaming, and safety features in specialized clothing.
