The Suit
Videos
The Arm-bands and harness still need lots of adjustment!!! So that they fit and look much better, and that the armbands don’t dangle as they do now.

The Backpack
You can’t see it so well in the photo, but the backpack consists of: the backpack itself (carrier material), the back x-IMU that controls the RGB LEDs on both gloves, a panel for the LED x-IMU to connect to both Arm-bands, a pocket for the motherboard, which will also contain battery and wireless (possibly addition of another pocket/pouch), the lower half of the backpack consists of 4 deep pockets to hold the radio microphones and head pieces.
Upper-Arm-Bands
Include Upper-Arm-x-IMU pouch and sleeve for Arm-Band to go through.

Glove Pattern to-scale
Not the most professional sewing pattern…
Seam: I tried to sew a straight stitch as close to the edge as possible, probably ended up with a 2-3mm seam.
Sensor tubes: i sewed these on before sewing the bottom and top of the glove together. i used a roughly 3mm wide zig-zag stitch and did it all in one continuous go.
