Brandon Marsh – NMP Jacket

Since doing a lot of research about wearable technology, I’ve come to the conclusion that my project needs a little more edge.

The first thing that came to mind is maybe building or using a cellphone RF frequency jammer. The problem with this is they are veryillegal. If caught I could get a maximum $5,000 fine and 1 year in jail, which the idea of jail isn’t a promising aspect, but I’m not sure I can risk my immediate future on something like that.
