iDevices LLC, a leading app-enablement company and creators of the award-winning Bluetooth devices iGrill and iShower, announced My Virtual Closet at the Broadcom Connecting Everything media event held in San Francisco.
iDevices has set up a worldwide consortium for fashion designers to collaborate with iDevices on this Bluetooth app-enabled experience set to revolutionize the fashion industry.
The My Virtual Closet app communicates with the fashion designer's garments using Bluetooth Smart technology. Through a discreetly placed package with a BLE chip and small coin cell battery within clothing, handbags, and shoes, designers and consumers will be able to interact like never before.
"My Virtual Closet is an idea that I had several months ago with the uproar in wearable technology," said CEO of iDevices, Chris Allen. "It's something I think will not only revolutionize the in-store and at home experience for customers but will add unparalleled value for designers."
There are two elements to the My Virtual Closet app and wearable technology experience:
1. Point-of-sale: The Virtual Shopping Assistant.
2. At home: My Virtual Closet.
Point-of-Sale: The Virtual Shopping Assistant App Provides Garment Details, Inventory LookUp, & Recommended Purchases
The Virtual Shopping Assistant app is the first element, which is encountered by consumers in-store. Bluetooth Smart enabled garments positioned throughout the store allow for self-guided shopping, meaning more flexibility for store representatives, higher sales revenues and a flawless store flow.
