After smartphones, smart TVs, clothes are also getting smarter now. Well-known clothing brand Levi's has brought a jacket that will allow you to operate some essential features of your smartphone and apps. The company will sell these jackets under the name Smart Trucker Jackets. This jacket will look like a common denim jacket, but Google's technology makes it special. With the help of this technology, the phone can be swiped and touched through the cuffs given at the end of the sleeve of the jacket.
Introduced two years ago
Google and Levi's introduced this high-tech jacket two years ago as a 'commuter trucker'. People liked this jacket very much and now the company is making it available in the classic trucker and Sherpa trucker design.

Works on Google's special technology
Like the original jackets, these latest jackets will also work on Google's Jacquard technology. The sleeves of the jacket have a Bluetooth module present inside the left cuff. This makes the jacket a touch sensitive remote for smartphones. Its special thing is that through the Jacard app, users can also program it according to their own.
Many tasks will be done through gestures
This jacket allows you to perform many tasks easily. You can only answer incoming calls and take music play / pause in the phone along with taking selfies from gestures. Not only this, it also comes with Google Assistant Support. Another thing that makes it extremely special is that if you accidentally forget your smartphone while wearing the jacket, it will alert you through light blinks of vibration and Bluetooth tag.
Starting price is around Rs 14,000
Talking about the price, the classic design of this jacket can be purchased for $ 198 (about Rs 14,000) and the Sherpa design for $ 248 (about Rs 17,600). Let me tell you that, if dirty, you can wash this jacket just like a normal jacket.
