The BioShirt is composed of two parts: a specially designed shirt and a monitoring system that weighs about just 20 grams including a battery.
"Next year, people wearing BioShirt will be able to know their temperatures, heart rates and speeds while running on a real-time basis using a wristwatch-type Miniature computer enabled by Bluetooth," Kim said.
