In the article, "Force-Sensing Gloves could Control an iPhone By Detecting Gestures and How Objects Are Gripped," Owen (2019) has stated that Apple aims to enable people to interact with devices using any form of clothing made using conductive strands in the fabric, such as gloves, which provide force-sensing capabilities. The article describes how a glove could be enabled to detect the pressure and the number of finger the user presses on a surface, delivering different commands. The clothing would incorporate conductive strands, interwoven with normal threads in the fabric, which allows the sending of electrical signals from one section to another. The conductive strands are connected to force sensing circuitry whose signals are sent to a wireless element to send commands or other information to a main device. The article also states that Apple has also thought of adding these fabrics with flexible displays to create smart clothing.

Subject: Self Introduction Dear Professor Brad, My name is Peh Zhi Wei and I am one of the student in your effective communication class group 4. I am writing this letter to introduce myself for you to know me better. I graduated from Singapore Polytechnic with a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering in 2017. The reason why I studied mechanical engineer was due to the influence of my family members and the lack of passion and having no goals for my future. Hearing from my family members and research online, I came to a conclusion that I should study mechanical engineering as it is a very general course where I can keep my choice open and specialize in something that interest me in the future. Throughout my polytechnic learning experience and internship, this piqued my interest in mechanical engineering as I slowly get curious in how does an object mechanism works and make me realized that the world of engineering is huge and there are still a lot for us to uncover. Thus, I have a...
