N2 - The applications of information technology and automation solutions have reached new limits in various sectors such as the industrial, medical, and even the educational field, which recently have witnessed a great development through implementing the automation of educational path methods and strategies for different levels: school and university. Implementing new technologies in the educational sector and in every classroom is essential to attract students' attention in the classroom and encourage open-discussions and engagement in the subjects being taught. New teaching methods are emerging, and old ones are improving due to technological advancements. This paper presents and discusses the design and implementation process of a system of wearable technology that provides visual indicators and graphical displays of human body organs. The system aims to help instructors explain the human body parts through using multi-LEDs and sensors mounted on a suit. For example, when the instructor wearing the suit points at a certain part of the body such as the heart, the LEDs connected to the location of heart will light up and display visuals representing the heart, and this is applied to the rest of human body parts. The proposed educational suit aims to enhance students' engagement in the classroom and capture their attention, which in return will help improve the learning experience.
