It\u003cbr\u003e will help designers to understand the possibilities of\u003cbr\u003e smart textile production, so that they are enabled to\u003cbr\u003e design this type of products. It will also help textile\u003cbr\u003e and electronics manufacturers to understand which\u003cbr\u003e production technologies are suitable to meet certain\u003cbr\u003e product requirements.\u003cbr\u003e After an introduction to smart textiles and their market\u003cbr\u003e relevance, different material types for functional\u003cbr\u003e textiles are described along with their properties, \u003cbr\u003e application areas, and product examples. Special\u003cbr\u003e attention is given to materials for the realization of\u003cbr\u003e electrical conductivity in textiles, as these are crucial\u003cbr\u003e for the following overview on sensor and production\u003cbr\u003e technologies. Next, textile-based sensors are\u003cbr\u003e introduced. While numerous textile-based sensors, \u003cbr\u003e ranging from sensing fibers to coatings and three-dimensional\u003cbr\u003e structures, have been developed, their\u003cbr\u003e specific properties and usage are not clear. Bosowski\u003cbr\u003e et al. have suggested a structure for a classified catalogue\u003cbr\u003e as knowledge basis to support the smart textile\u003cbr\u003e product development process. This chapter develops\u003cbr\u003e the classification further and implements it in a catalogue\u003cbr\u003e to be used by practitioners from research and\u003cbr\u003e industry when developing and designing textiles with\u003cbr\u003e sensing capabilities. The full catalogue is reported in\u003cbr\u003e the appendix. The third part of the book starts by describing\u003cbr\u003e the state of the art of research on production\u003cbr\u003e technologies for the integration of conductive materials\u003cbr\u003e into textile substrates, which include weaving, \u003cbr\u003e knitting, embroidering, printing, without mentioning\u003cbr\u003e specific products. Different variants of each technology\u003cbr\u003e are presented. Additionally, associated technologies\u003cbr\u003e to integrate electrical components in textile substrates\u003cbr\u003e are outlined. This part closes by reporting the\u003cbr\u003e current state of research on automated production\u003cbr\u003e systems for electronics integration into textiles. In the\u003cbr\u003e last part of the book, product and design concepts\u003cbr\u003e for smart textiles are evaluated along the example of\u003cbr\u003e touchpads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 204\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.69 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 12, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47416678383794,"sku":"9783038974970","price":99.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/e08a66837490d9a09ea1c6bc98368529.webp?v=1778412931","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/smart-textiles-production-overview-of-materials-sensor-and-production-technologies-for-industrial-smart-textiles-hardcover","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
