It'd be reminiscent of the hypercolor stuff. Maybe the only thing to check out for UV LEDs is intensity of output vs. power input - my suit uses a shitload of power as it (like 1.4A I think), and white LEDs give you one of the biggest brightness bangs for your buck.<br>
<br>On a garment it could kick ass, but can you get LED sunburn from LEDs being too close to your body? :). And super thank you to everyone for all the compliments!<br><font color="#888888"><br>Sean</font><div><div></div>

Though seeing this, I think it would apply to garments as well. I don't want to take away from your inspiring work, here.<div>

That SO COOL. Now I want to get an army of us together all dressed as Tron dorks, and start a Frisbee sports team!<br><br>I was thinking about trying something similar with UV LED's and florescent pigment. This would lend its self well to sunlight but maybe less well in darkness. Thoughts?<div>

Sean that's an awesome suit! Congratulations on making something really cool and <i>thanks for sharing something constructive (and related to hacking) </i>with the list. <br><br>You've got my vote.<br><br>Laura<br>

Helllllloooo Noisebridge!<br><br>As some of you may know - I love making dumb costumes. The shinier it is, the more I'm interested in it. For the new Tron movie, I made a Tron suit (in the nouveau style) that is entirely lit by LEDs (about 190 of them). You can't see the pesky points, and but you do have an epic, diffuse, overly bright white glow. I wrote an instructables article on how to do it, and even if you aren't the slightest bit interested in Tron, but you are interested in wearable electronics, I'd say to head to the below link and check it out! Hopefully you at least get some ideas on how to get 190 LEDs onto an easily washable outfit quickly :).<br>
<br>BTW, its up for the laser cutter contest, so if you love it - *vote for it to win it*! I can't put a laser cutter in my apartment, so that means it'll be coming to Noisebridge if I win it (scouts honor and pinky swear!)<br>
