Your next shirt could have a built-in touchscreen

How often do you reach for your phone just to check something quickly? Maybe you're walking the dog or carrying groceries and don't feel like digging through your pocket. Now, scientists are working on a way to put a touchscreen directly into the clothes you wear. Yes, your sleeve could eventually become a screen you can tap with your finger.

Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed what they describe as the world's first touchscreen woven directly into a garment.
