A quick update for the technically interested. Arduino released a microcontroller, that is suited for "Smart Clothes": the LilyPad.
Still I don't know if I should like or dislike electronics directly attached to textiles. But to see it in action, you can check out one first project made my Rebecca Stern.
Aren't the electronic parts getting hot!?

The only component on there that would get even slightly warm is that 5V regulator. I only give it between 7 and 9 volts, so it really doesn't get that warm; certainly not enough to make it a fire hazard. Thanks for showing my project!

Chris - Have fun there! (I'm hiking, in these days)
Eggshell Robotics - Hm, hm. Is this a robot? Well, sure it is. What is a factory-belt robot? Is this a robot? Not sure at all? In fact, they are just machines, right? But... there is a significant pattern underneath, that you also mention indirectly: what defines a robot? Do they have rights (or wrongs)? Check "Roboethics" i.e on this blog, to dig deeper into that one.
mo. - Is this really a robto? To me, this is more a stoopid machine. How do you define a robot? What is a robot?
Dean - Hey that is tops, Especially like the high speed cameras
Eggshell Robotics - Well, Mr. Roboto. Could you be a little more precise the next time you post a link or write a comment? The general website on interactive-robotics is very general and don't really show what you mean.
Mr.Roboto - Check out the latest ice cream robot on the market! http://interactive-robotics.com/
Nomad - i was waiting for one of the robots to shoot off a missile and annihilate one of the other other robots
Eggshell Robotics - Well, okay then. It shows the phenomena of the effect. Thanks for pointing this out.
