EDITOR: JACOB SCHILL
YEAR: 2024
Design studio Inxects has developed a wearable that translates environmental stress signals into physical sensations to let the user feel the impact humans are having on nature.The Gaia Communication System (GCS) incorporates a sensor-laced vest and wrist sleeves that gather data about the health of plants, soil, air and ecosystems before translating these readings into haptic feedback in the form of vibrations.Danish studio Inxects designed the system to give people an intuitive and visceral way of understanding the suffering of plants and animals due to pollution, climate change and habitat destruction.
