synapseWear is an open source wearable device & fashion collection for recording your motion and environmental data to create playful visualizations / sonifications. Small and light the synapseWear device includes 6 sensors to capture your motion and environmental data. You can use it as an attractive air quality monitor or a way to enhance your performance art. The sensors act as mnemonic recorders of your sentient experiences perceiving: C02/TVOC, temperature, humidity, pressure, light, movement (9DOF) and ambient sound levels.

synapseWear Vision：
・synapseWear is a device that captures and records the environment(s) we live in (air, light, sound and motion) rich with data that you own. We believe that the future of wearables will be in owning and controlling your personal data.
・synapseWear is a collection of garments that allows you to wear our device in different places for different uses. We believe that wearables can break out of the “wrist/watch gadget paradigm” to include your whole body.
・synapseWear is a visualization (graphics) and sonification (audio) platform for the data you collect. We believe IoT can be presented as so much more than just metrics.
・synapseWear is a tool for a new kind of capture/recording of your day. We believe that wearables (much like the still/video camera and audio recordings) can open up new forms of storytelling and narratives of your everyday.
