The jacket is called 'Commuter Trucker Jacket' and easily allows the users to easily interact with their smartphones just by swiping at the garment in various ways.


Beside the detachable electronic smart tag that activates a wireless connection between the clothing and a mobile device, the jacket is apparently waterproof.


The garment is aimed at cyclists who may be too busy riding and concentrating on their surroundings to reach into their pockets and fiddle with their phones, Forbes reported on Friday citing Paul Dillinger, company head of global product innovation.


"If you get this thing dirty, you put it in the washing machine," said Dillinger during Google's annual developer conference in Mountain View, California, this week.


The garment is powered by Google's Project Jacquard technology developed by the internet giant's Advanced Technology and Projects Group.
