Manufacturing and Performance Assessments of Several Applications of Electrotextiles and Large-Area Flexible Circuits

Abstract: Numerous applications of electrotextiles and flexible circuits have been identified that can advance systems performance for many commercial, military, and aerospace devices. Several novel uses of electrotextiles have been developed for lab testing, while others have been utilized in products on the commercial market, as well as items that have flown in space. ILC Dover, Inc. has utilized conductive fibers in various inflatable and tensile structures for signal transmission and electrostatic charge protection.… Show more

“…These will be embedded in clothes and other everyday life goods, such as control devices for smart clothing, remote control cushions, touchtone musical keyboards, interactive walls, haptic communication between human and computers, fullbody tactile sensors for robots, capacitively sensing textile pressure sensors for sitting posture classification and smart carpets for human tracking, and so on. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Inaba et al presented a full-body tactile sensor suit with 192 sensing regions, each of which was wired as an individual binary switch, using copper and nickel plated conductive fabrics and yarns. 1 Post et al developed a musical jacket with a capacitive touch keypad embroidered with a stainless steel and polyester composite thread, and controlled through stitch placement.…”

“…Clothing & Textiles, Sangmyung University, Korea technology, which was designed for rugged use in harsh changeable, thermal and dusty environments. 11 This technology came into the market with the QIO ElekTex Õ six-button textile touchpad. 12 For the Elektex Õ and similar products, the number of connections from the sensing surfaces to the controller is equal to the number of buttons plus one ground line; as the number of required sensing positions increases, so does the number of connection lines.…”

“…A relatively modern technique called electrospinning allows the generation of fibers at a nanoscale and is often used to produce scaffolds for tissue engineering. Electrospinning is a process in which ultrathin, multifilament fibers with diameters in the nanometer range are created by spinning and manipulating streams of electrically charged polymers in a strong magnetic or electric field, used to make specialized fabrics, such as those in space suits (Cadogan and Shook, ). Many polymers can be used to electrospin nanofibers and this technique is not limited to synthetic polymers.…”
