World's First Phone Glove!
At least I think it is? Made from a reconstituted Bluetooth headset and a gentleman's driving glove (well it had to be didn't it?) my phone glove will connect to any mobile phone that has Bluetooth. No wires, no plugs. With your phone stashed out of sight you can make and receive calls with your thumb as the speaker and little finger as mic.
I sandwiched the switch that came with the original Bluetooth headset between two small pieces of transparent plastic and heat sealed them together. Placed inside the glove's open knuckle the switch is activated by me flexing my wrist. With a flick of the wrist I can answer an incoming call; with two flicks re-dial the last number. And by holding it open (a mere extended kink of the wrist) I can voice dial. That's right people - VOICE DIAL!
I've decided to include a bunch of pictures my buddy Rich and I took of the initial prototype build and some I did on my camera phone (low res alert!). You should get a clear sense of the method behind this simple but effective invention - rather than me boring y'all with the details.
   
Shopping List:
Any Bluetooth headset.
Small Clippers
Electrical Tape
Soldering Iron and bits
Any thin flexible electrical wire - colour coded will help
A few strips of transparent plastic (ripped up old sandwich box)
Your Gauntlet of Choice.
Lining fabric (not all that necessary, but sensible)
