Smart Uniforms by Marcus Henry

Don’t. Move.

If you attend a Chinese school, I suggest you don’t do anything stupid while wearing your uniform. Chinese schools are beginning to require students to wear “smart uniforms,” each embedded with a GPS tracker that broadcasts the student’s location, like something out of an adventure novel. In addition, the schools have facial recognition software to make sure the students are wearing the correct uniform. Additionally, they can detect when a student falls asleep during school hours! About the only upside to these walking prisons is that students are able to make purchases from them.
