  • Technical Textiles
  • Applications of Electronics
DEF

Fabric made from yarns that carry electronic components.

CONT

Electronic textiles (e-textiles) are fabrics that have electronics and interconnections woven into them, with physical flexibility and size that cannot be achieved with existing electronic manufacturing techniques. Components and interconnections are intrinsic to the fabric and thus are less visible and not susceptible to becoming tangled together or snagged by the surroundings.

Les textiles électroniques ne sont pas nouveaux, mais la plupart des versions existantes ont une faible perméabilité à l'air, ne peuvent pas être lavées ou sont trop coûteuses ou complexes pour produire en masse.
