Abstract
Articles of clothing include modules for sensing physical and/or physiological characteristics associated with use of the clothing or for performing other functions. Such clothing systems and methods may use physical or other interaction(s) between the module and the article of clothing for activating and/or deactivating the module and/or sensing devices included with the module, for example, to confirm whether the module and clothing are authorized for use with one another, and/or for automatic data algorithm selection methods. Additionally, such systems may sense interactions between the module and a module securing element of the clothing to activate or deactivate functions of the module.
