Woven electronic fibers with sensing and display functions for smart textiles

Abstract

Woven electronic circuits combining thin-film electronic devices and commercial integrated circuits with plastic fibers (e-fibers) have been developed. This technology serves as a platform to integrate a large variety of microelectronic circuits, sensors, and systems intimately within textile architectures using commercial manufacturing methods.
