Description

Fundawear is the world’s first wearable technology which allows personal touch to be transferred from a smartphone application to a partner anywhere in the world. Billie Whitehouse designed Fundawear in partnership with Ben Moir and Havas Worldwide, for Durex. Fundawear uses touch technology by placing actuators in the underwear which is then remotely stimulated using a smartphone application that can be controlled via mobile phones and computers, therefore replicating the feel of human touch.
