Forget Sandwich Boards; Why Not Wear Video?

wearable-video.jpg

"If you wear it, they will watch." That's the premise behind the concept of wearable video (patent pending).

The business plan is simple enough: just slide a video vest onto "brand ambassadors," a winning euphemism for "leggy girls in bikinis and/or short skirts walking around with audio/visual torsos." Big upgrade on ye olde standby.

Online testimonials included "Hey, cool" and "I was drawn to her."

...Yeah.

I think those vest things look bulky and heavy. The shirt tv thing is hot.

That would be but it is not real. It is composited in post production just like the little dog running by.

I vote for T-Shirt TV because I saw they live and I know it is real. They had them in vegas at CES.
