“…However, the current status of wearable technology still remains at a research level where computing devices are simply miniaturized and attached to apparel to monitor vital signals, e.g., smart watches and smart shirts [ 7 ]. A more meaningful deployment of the technology will be achieved once the technology matures to a point where we can form electronic circuits in textile threads [ 8 ]. As the interdisciplinary research between thread manufacturing and IT has recently accelerated, various cases of smart textile that incorporate display elements have been reported, and smart textile technology is evolving to integrate information-processing and data-transmission elements into textiles [ 9 ].…”

In this research, we developed a wearable temperature-sensing element by dip dyeing threads in poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) (p-type conducting polymer) solution. The PEDOT:PSS was used to dye the textile and it exhibited negative temperature coefficient characteristics in which the resistance decreases as the temperature increases. The fabricated temperature-detection thread achieved a sensitivity of 167.1 Ω/°C with 99.8% linearity in the temperature range of −50 °C to 80 °C. We anticipate that temperature sensors that apply our technology will be made as stitch- or textile-type for wearable devices, and they will be widely adopted for different applications such as in fitness, leisure, healthcare, medical treatment, infotainment, industry, and military applications, among others.
