“…In fact, the same user may perform a gesture differently depending on the time of the day, medication, and fatigue. The caregivers assistive care systems should require absolute minimal setup and maintenance [1]. To Overcome all the problems we have designed, implemented and evaluated a system that uses wearable sensors built from textile capacitive sensor arrays (CSA) and a wrist worn accelerometer.…”

Physical disabilities such as lower limb loss, manual dexterity, disable to co-ordinate with different organs of the body are very common sequel of brain injury, strokes, spinal cord injury and degenerative diseases such as affecting tissues or organs. Existing assistive technology solutions for such patients provide access as user input devices such technologies are intrusive and expensive, and require physical contact that can have hazardous effects such as skin friction injury for patients who have reduced their skin sensitivity. To overcome this problem, in this paper, we proposed the design and implementation of non-contact proximity gesture recognition system using textile capacitive sensor arrays. The Textile capacitive sensors can be easily integrated into items of quotation of clothing, bed sheets. This sensor is lightweight and flexible. To build this algorithm two techniques are used these are Hidden Markove Model and Dynamic Time Warping. These Techniques are used to convert raw capacitance values to alphanumeric gestures. This system is personalized to the user; this also allows the personalized selection of gesture and recognize gestures with varying complexity with less user training.

The programmable nature of smart textiles makes them an indispensable part of an emerging new technology field. Smart textile‐integrated microelectronic systems (STIMES), which combine microelectronics and technology such as artificial intelligence and augmented or virtual reality, have been intensively explored. A vast range of research activities have been reported. Many promising applications in healthcare, the internet of things (IoT), smart city management, robotics, etc., have been demonstrated around the world. A timely overview and comprehensive review of progress of this field in the last five years are provided. Several main aspects are covered: functional materials, major fabrication processes of smart textile components, functional devices, system architectures and heterogeneous integration, wearable applications in human and nonhuman‐related areas, and the safety and security of STIMES. The major types of textile‐integrated nonconventional functional devices are discussed in detail: sensors, actuators, displays, antennas, energy harvesters and their hybrids, batteries and supercapacitors, circuit boards, and memory devices.

This paper presents design and batch manufacturing of a highly stretchable textile-silicone capacitive sensor to be used in human articulation detection, soft robotics and exoskeletons. The proposed sensor is made of conductive knit fabric as electrode and silicone elastomer as dielectric. The batch manufacturing technology enables production of large sensor mat and arbitrary shaping of sensors, which is precisely achieved via laser cutting of the sensor mat. Individual capacitive sensors exhibit high linearity, low hysteresis, and a gauge factor of 1.23. Compliant, low profile and robust electrical connections are established by fusing filaments of micro coaxial cable to conductive fabric electrodes of the sensor with thermoplastic film. The capacitive sensors are integrated on a reconstructed glove for monitoring finger motions.
