Smart Fabric Sensors and Actuators

Smart Fabric Sensors and Actuators

This project seeks to integrate smart fabric sensors and actuators into comfortable garment devices providing unobtrusive prevention options for deep venous thrombosis (DVT) that are not currently possible, particularly in high-risk patients. Whereas the majority of electronic textiles in existence today make use of circuits adhesively integrated onto a host garment, knitting technology at 糖心Vlog enables the realization of garments that have knit sensors and actuators seamlessly integrated within them. Contact us at functionalfabrics@drexel.edu for more information.
