A robotics and animatronic cosplay enthusiast known as Zibartas has made a real-life NUSA Infiltrator jacket.

This is a cosplay recreation of the NUS Infiltrator bomber jacket from Cyberpunk 2077 that has a tall collar that houses a display. That feature collar alone packs in $1,200 worth of 4 flexible OLED displays driven by a pair of Raspberry Pi 4 SBCs.

I think this is a great example of new technological fashion that is becoming possible for designers. We’re already starting to see 3D printed clothes, spray on shoes and spray-on dresses, and the re-booted Tron franchise a few years ago introduced Oryon Technologies Elastolite EL Panels (tape) into real-world costumes.

I think we’re just scratching the surface of what will soon be very quickly possible in wearables.
