Smart Textiles
Textiles surround us wherever we go and not just in the form of the clothes we wear,
but also on floors, walls and furniture and in automobiles too, where they are used for everything from seats
to tires. Textiles are even used in the construction of buildings. While technical textiles already make use of
innovative materials such as carbon and glass or conductive fibers, the next generation of textiles will be
electronically enhanced so as to increase efficiency, convenience, and personal safety in a number of different areas.
At the Future-Shape Smart Textile Laboratory, we use leading-edge bonding methods to develop
interconnect technologies for the most diverse conductive fabrics and microelectronic materials. We conduct
elaborate electrical and optical analyses of the contact areas and materials and carry out extensive usability tests to
evaluate degradation characteristics.
