Well...not quite.
The sensors are still hard to hide, though we did not make pouches for them this time so at the very least they are not noticeable until the participant strokes the wearer's back.
However, the flower was made using paper, and the servomotor opened and closed it successfully. We also managed to find another black shirt that looked more elegant to match the flower.
The Miura/Ori folding structure was very successful in making the flower open and close beautifully. The LED spores lit up as well. One idea we implemented was to cover them with translucent paper leaves, so it would make the garment look more organic and elegant.
Here are some photos of our finished garment, from flower closed to flower opening.
We also have a video of our final product that explains, ideation, prototyping, user testing, and other thoughts of our project. We call our garment bloom.
