SMART FABRICS-WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY

open access: yesInternational Journal of Engineering Technologies and Management Research, 2020
Smart fabrics, generally regarded as smart Textiles are fabrics that have embedded electronics and interconnections woven into them, resulting in physical flexibility that is not achievable with other known electronic manufacturing techniques. Interconnections and components are intrinsic to the fabric therefore are not visible and less susceptible of ...
