No Person Detected

The collection of Victorian-themed wearables and accessories of "No Person Detected" serves as an innovative solution to the issues surrounding biometric technology and the invasion of privacy. This wearable technology was designed to counteract the involuntary recording of an individual's unique biometric data through the use of body cameras and CCTV, which can be accessed by law enforcement and marketing companies. The technology represents a democratization of design ideas and collaboration that allows individuals to create adversarial fashion and provides a level of biometric protection. This thesis explores the potential of technological innovation and collaboration to result in a more privacy-conscious society, one where individuals can take control of their personal data and protect themselves against the dangers of biometric tracking. The convergence of fashion, technology, and design has the potential to revolutionize how we approach privacy in a digital age, and "No Person Detected" represents an exciting step towards that future.
