Smart Textiles and Their Role in Monitoring the Body’s Fitness and Medical Conditions
Original language description
Textiles are considered the “second skin” for humans, as they have direct contact with most parts of the body all the time. This allows “smart textiles” to monitor the body and maintain a record of its vital signs and physiological activities. In this paper we present advanced materials integrated into textiles to serve specific sensing and/or actuation purposes. The paper also survey the utilization of textile wearable devices to monitor breathing as one of their medical applications. Finally, the paper reports on the development for fibrous structures with chemosensing elements that can be integrated in cloths to act as a sensor for hazardous gases in the environment. This work shows the promising role of smart textiles in monitoring body’s fitness, diagnosing medical conditions, and alarming against possible issues.
