“…This was the most common trend by far. It was also common that sensors were embedded in shirts at chest or abdomen level [ 21 , 49 , 59 , 65 , 69 , 84 , 85 , 94 , 108 , 113 , 123 , 142 , 143 , 151 , 235 ]. This was the location selected by 15% of the studies.…”

“…Regarding the tools for measurement processing, Figure 36 shows the distribution of use of the different tools for the wearable and environmental respiration monitoring systems. MATLAB was the preferred software for both types of systems, since it was adopted by half of the studies, while NI Labview was the second most used tool as it appeared in 20–30% of the works [ 2 , 3 , 19 , 63 , 71 , 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 127 , 129 , 131 , 138 , 142 , 146 , 153 , 163 , 201 , 218 , 219 , 220 , 223 , 225 ]. The rest of the tools relied heavily on the specific sensor used to capture the data.…”

“…An ideal breathing sensor should be mobile, easy to use, imperceptible and immune to body motion [ 48 , 119 , 135 ]. Several authors agree that a system that covers all these aspect should be successfully integrated into clothing [ 21 , 59 , 65 , 69 , 84 , 85 , 94 , 103 , 108 , 113 , 119 , 123 , 142 , 143 , 151 ]. This is a consequence of the fact that long-term home monitoring entails direct connection between patient and system.…”

Respiratory monitoring is essential in sleep studies, sport training, patient monitoring, or health at work, among other applications. This paper presents a comprehensive systematic review of respiration sensing systems. After several systematic searches in scientific repositories, the 198 most relevant papers in this field were analyzed in detail. Different items were examined: sensing technique and sensor, respiration parameter, sensor location and size, general system setup, communication protocol, processing station, energy autonomy and power consumption, sensor validation, processing algorithm, performance evaluation, and analysis software. As a result, several trends and the remaining research challenges of respiration sensors were identified. Long-term evaluations and usability tests should be performed. Researchers designed custom experiments to validate the sensing systems, making it difficult to compare results. Therefore, another challenge is to have a common validation framework to fairly compare sensor performance. The implementation of energy-saving strategies, the incorporation of energy harvesting techniques, the calculation of volume parameters of breathing, or the effective integration of respiration sensors into clothing are other remaining research efforts. Addressing these and other challenges outlined in the paper is a required step to obtain a feasible, robust, affordable, and unobtrusive respiration sensing system.

“…With the increase of fabric tightness the relaxation effects increased slightly (from 4 to 16%) [38]. Zieba [58] constructed a knitted respiration sensor consisting of a cotton yarn base fabric a 20 mm band of knitted silver plated polyester yarns (Xsilver, China). No details about knitting and gauge factor were reported but the respiration measurements results appeared reasonable.…”

By embedding conductive yarns in, or onto, knitted textile fabrics, simple but robust stretch sensor garments can be manufactured. In that way resistance based sensors can be fully integrated in textiles without compromising wearing comfort, stretchiness, washability, and ease of use in daily life. The many studies on such textile strain sensors that have been published in recent years show that these sensors work in principle, but closer inspection reveals that many of them still have severe practical limitations like a too narrow working range, lack of sensitivity, and undesired time-dependent and hysteresis effects. For those that intend to use this technology it is difficult to determine which manufacturing parameters, shape, stitch type, and materials to apply to realize a functional sensor for a given application. This paper therefore aims to serve as a guideline for the fashion designers, electronic engineers, textile researchers, movement scientists, and human–computer interaction specialists planning to create stretch sensor garments. The paper is limited to textile based sensors that can be constructed using commercially available conductive yarns and existing knitting and embroidery equipment. Within this subtopic, relevant literature is discussed, and a detailed quantitative comparison is provided focusing on sensor characteristics like the gauge factor, working range, and hysteresis.

“…Yao [8] have developed an X-band with three conventional silicon electrodes for continuous monitoring of cardiac activity. Zięba et al [9] created a sleeveless seamless shirt that includes a knitted stretch sensor to measure breathing rate. Manero et al [10] have presented a prototype of running legging with three pairs of embroidered electrodes (and circuits) for continuous monitoring of muscular activity in the quadriceps.…”

Given the premise that cycling encourages a healthy lifestyle and promotes wellbeing, this paper describes the design process for the development of a cycling garment, with embedded electrodes for heart rate measurement to further widen the possibilities of health and performance monitoring, in a practical and unobtrusive way. Electrodes were produced and tested, using different textile materials and techniques. Signal measurement is based on the BBB Y8YBH20 heart rate monitor and performance tests were done using the Polar Beat mobile app. Finally, a prototype of the garment is presented.
