Google's annual I/O conference may be extremely useful for developers from all over the world to sit down with Google engineers and get advice on how to better structure code and build more efficient apps, but it's also an excellent opportunity for the average technology fan to get an insight into the future of smart products. At last year's I/O, Google took the opportunity to announce a partnership with Levi's that would ultimately result in the production of a wearable item manufactured from a 'smart fabric'. Twelve months later, Google has used this year's gathering in Mountain View to announce that its 'Project Jacquard' team in collaboration with Levi's, will be releasing a smart version of the Levi's Commuter Trucker Jacket for sale by next year.
