Weaving of Fabric for Meter-Scale Floor Touch Sensors Using Automatic Looming Machine
Abstract:We have proposed and developed a 1.2-m-wide automatic looming machine to continuously construct a meter-scale floor touch sensor fabric. The fabric floor touch sensors are woven fabric with conductive-polymer-coated sensor fibers, and projection capacitive measurement is utilized for a human touch sensing mechanism. The automatic looming machine for floor touch sensors can weave sensitive sensor fibers as wefts and warps of the sensor fabric. For weaving different tensions for sensor fiber warps, a specific wa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
