  1. Smart textiles

    Merge to technical fabric date June 2010 Merge to E textiles date June 2010 Merge to conductive textile date June 2010 References Reflist Smart and intelligent textile. There is a substantive difference between the terms, Smart and Intelligent, Smart materials or textiles can be defined as the materials and structures which have sense or can sense the environmental conditions or stimuli, whereas intelligent textiles can be defined as textile structures which not only can sense but can also react and respond to environmental conditions or stimuli. These stimuli as well as response, could be thermal, chemical, mechanical, electric, magnetic or from other source. 1 Smart Fabric has several meanings. Smart fabrics are ones which can change react automatically to their surroundings. Smart fabrics or intelligent textiles are being developed to be able to sense what is happening to the wearer or its immediate surroundings. An example of this would be its capacity to know when the wearers heart rate spikes or drops unexpectedly, then being able to send such information to a paramedic of some description. A very common type of smart fabric is Gore Tex, called a smart fabric because of its material properties to let water or moisture flow in one direction and not the other. There are two more modern types of smart fabrics, one using nanotechnology such as carbon nanotubes or fireproof treatments, the other a combination of electronics and conductive fabrics for sensing a persons vital signs. An example of this is SmartLife s HealthVest, using knitted sensors integrated and integral to the garments manufacture. A further example include Zephyr Technology BioHarness, that can also be built into a shirt or bra strap. Biological monitoring technology has also been adopted by mainstream consumers in the form of the Numetrex Adidas heart rate monitoring garments, which combine with smart fabrics with advanced knitting technologies. The promise of smart fabrics is that every day clothing ...   more details
