“…The literature presents 10 examples of employing double cloth (see Figure 3, pane D) to construct woven eTextiles [3,41,72,83,99,103,108,109,129,130]. Relative to double weave, double cloth acts as a frmer base for integrating functional elements, thanks to its interconnected layer structure.…”

“…With the stifer interconnection structure, the optical fbres bent at the point where the layers crossed. Tan et al [109] used double cloth similarly to provide surface texture and visual versatility for woven displays. Double cloth has functioned in the construction of capacitive sensing elements too.…”

“…Furthermore, the material combinations and yarn arrangements determine the appearance and tactility of woven eTextiles. In various writings, researchers identify woven textiles' aesthetics potential as a crucial contributor to eTextile construction [20,20,28,32,43,73,85,86,89,95,96,105,109,118]. This aspect often ties in with a textile-designdriven research orientation.…”

Advances to functional materials and fexible electronics have yielded new means of integrating electrical properties into textile materials, which invite researchers in various felds to apply woven-textile construction methods in eTextile development. However, common ground for woven eTextiles' prototyping is still taking shape. This calls for greater understanding of how the knowledge now scattered across diverse research felds can beneft the textiles' development for HCI. To investigate how eTextile research has employed weaving and extract insight for HCI purposes, the authors reviewed and categorised applications of woven structures and electrical functions, then identifed specifcally HCI-relevant qualities and means of creating them via weaving. The paper outlines those woven structures useful for HCI and advocates consistent weaving-related terminology, to improve knowledge transfer across disciplines. In addition, the results point to research opportunities involving haptic qualities, the ability to weave multiple layers, functionality integration, and tools and methods.
