It is already a reality! MIT scientists announced this week that they have created a new kind of fiber capable of detecting and emitting sound.
Professor Yoel Fink and his team have developed a process for making fiber that can act like a microphone or a speaker. MIT's Press Office says: "Applications could include clothes that are themselves sensitive microphones, for capturing speech or monitoring bodily functions, and tiny filaments that could measure blood flow in capillaries or pressure in the brain."
Just imagine the stories they could tell... Reality TV to a whole new level!!
