Ping - Pong Animated T-shirt

Trust us, it actually moves. Watch the clip

An article on Think Geek today shows just how many crazy yet ingenious ideas are out there. Sure you've thought it was easy even for you to make a T-shirt with LEDs and probably even made one. Probably even worn one. Let's not go that far. But have you ever thought of a T-shirt equipped with a very thin and peelable screen that shows a ping pong match? No you
haven't. But guys at Think Geek did and they called it the "Animated Retro Table Tennis Shirt."

You may not think that it does much, or that it's cool to wear but wait until you see the clip with the guy playing on a console (strange one at that) in the dark and his T-shirt glows like he's from another planet. It looks like he has an electronic gizmo integrated in his chest. The article posted on their site starts out with a few jokes on how it would be to have made a T-shirt that showed more complex gaming experience, like a FPS. Still, ping-pong is what they came up with and that's the way it's going to stay.

Although it's one of the coolest ideas for a T-shirt yet, you'll see that the screen shows something that looks much like a gif image for cell phones. Few frames are shown, just like Japanese cartoons but it's still kind of nifty that it glows in the dark. I'll get one and go clubbin' next Saturday wearing it. Girls will be all over me and my ping pong animated T-shirt, though I hope they don't spill their drinks over the battery pack.
