Prototype Consulting

The Hug Shirt^TM by CuteCircuit is a Bluetooth-enabled garment capable of transmitting a ‘hug’ over long distances. By connecting to users cellphones, ‘hug’ messages can be sent between Hug Shirts^TM proposing a new form of emotional communication between loved ones.
Aesthetec was contacted by CuteCircuit to consult on the technological design of an advanced prototype. Our experience in developing Bluetooth-enabled mobile interactives allowed us to provide the requested feedback to CuteCircuits design team, enabling them to deliver their prototype within the defined timeframe.
