- the mandrel can be designed, for example, in the manner of a pin or as a protrusion of a pin wheel and is designed to engage in the guide hole.
- the provision of such a guide hole, preferably with a diameter of 0.8 mm-2 mm, is particularly advantageous for the particularly simple attachment of the sequin and thus inexpensive production of the item of clothing.
- the sequin is fixed exclusively within its electronics section on the cut part, so that the guide section does not serve to mechanically fix the sequin to the cut part but only to position the sequin for fixing during the manufacture of the garment.
- the item of clothing has an outer layer which, when the item of clothing is worn as intended, forms an outer side of the item of clothing facing away from the wearer.
- the item of clothing also preferably has an underside layer which, when the item of clothing is worn as intended, forms an inside of the item of clothing facing the wearer.

- the sensor is designed to output a measured value that changes continuously as a function of the light intensity.
- the sensor can be designed as a photodiode, the sensor outputting a photocurrent as a measured value as a function of the light intensity.
- the control unit is particularly preferably designed to control the signal transmitter unit to output a signal as a function of the value of the light intensity output as a measured value.
- control unit can be designed to output a predefined control signal to the signal transmitter unit as soon as a predetermined value of the light intensity is reached, which it can assign to the measured value that was output by the sensor unit.
- a link with an evaluation logic is preferably stored in the control unit, which the corresponding Carries out evaluation of the measured value and thus determines the dependency with which it is determined which signal the signal transmitter unit outputs in response to a specific measured value output by the sensor.
- the dependency is particularly preferably defined or definable in such a way that if the value of the light intensity changes by more than one limit value, the signal transmitter unit is activated to output the signal.
- the control unit is thus designed so that it continuously receives measured values from the optical sensor and only if the measured value to which a certain value of the light intensity can be assigned changes by more than a limit value, the signal transmitter unit for Output of the signal controls.
- background noise ie in the present case background lighting
- the garment can detect when a light source occurs, which generates illumination on the optical sensor, so that the total light intensity that strikes the sensor, which results from the ambient light and the additional light source, increases.
- the particularly advantageous embodiment of the item of clothing can reliably detect when a light source approaches the item of clothing or illuminates the item of clothing. This can be particularly advantageous for recognizing the approach of a luminous object, such as a car, in the dark.
- the sensor unit particularly preferably forms a sensor surface, with at least 80%, in particular at least 90% of the sensor surface being arranged in a region on the item of clothing whose outwardly facing area When worn as intended, the surface normal has an angle of at least 30 °, in particular at least 45 °, to the vertical, the vertical being determined by the direction of the weight acting on the earth.
- the wearer of the garment stands straight, ie stands along a vertical that runs parallel to the weight acting on the earth, with his arms hanging straight down along the vertical and his eyes directed horizontally .
- the sensor surface is particularly preferably the surface of the sensor unit via which the sensor unit can receive signals from the environment around the item of clothing, so that the sensor unit outputs measured values that relate exclusively to the influences that the sensor unit is exposed to on its sensor surface.
- the sensor surface can in particular be formed by discrete sensors of the sensor unit that are spaced apart from one another. The alignment of the sensor surface ensures in a particularly advantageous manner that the sensor unit does not experience any interference from objects that are not relevant for the safety of a wearer of the item of clothing.
- the inventors have recognized that dangerous objects usually only approach the wearer of an item of clothing in a direction that is essentially perpendicular to the weight.
- interference for example interference from street lamps when an optical sensor unit is provided, can be avoided particularly effectively.
- the item of clothing is designed as a jacket.
- the sensor unit preferably forms a sensor surface via which, as explained, the sensor unit can record influences from the environment, in particular via which only the sensor unit can record influences from the environment, as explained.
- the sensor area is particularly preferably limited to an area of the jacket that is at least 2%, in particular at least 3%, in particular at least 5%, in particular at least 10% from the lower end of the jacket when worn as intended.
- the jacket has a side seam on each side that runs downwards from the sleeve base and is covered by the sleeve when worn as intended, the jacket having a waist circumference, the sensor area by at least 3%, in particular at least 4%, in particular at least 6%, in particular at least 10% of the waist circumference is spaced from the respective side seam.
- it is particularly reliably ensured that a normal movement of a wearer of the jacket is not interpreted by the control unit in such a way that an external object is approaching and that an approaching object is actually recognized.
- the signal transmitter unit has a current consumption of 500 mA to 3000 mA when the signal to be output upon receipt of the predefined control signal is output. Because of the particularly advantageous property of the item of clothing according to the invention of only transmitting a signal selectively in response to the detected presence of an external object, the signal transmitter unit can therefore consume a correspondingly high amount of energy when transmitting the Have signals without the useful life of the item of clothing being disproportionately restricted as a result.
