E-Textiles

Emerging Technologies in Electronics That Will Change Our Future

Electronic textiles (or smart clothing) are fabrics embedded with digital components and electronics to provide added value to the wearer. There are many other applications that rely on integrating electronics into fabrics, such as interior design technologies.

This type of technology is considered revolutionary because it has the ability to do several things that conventional fabrics cannot, including conduct energy, communicate, transform, and grow.

Future applications for smart clothing may be developed for health monitoring, tracking soldiers, and monitoring pilot. Personal and portable physiological monitoring,  communications, heating, and lighting can all benefit from this technology.
