E-textiles have been called
smart textiles or intelligent textiles, electroactive
textiles, wearable electronics, and textronic depending on the approach.
All these words referred to
the fabrics that can function as electronic devices and behave physically as
textiles1. E-textiles are located in the potential area of
intersection among textiles, electronics, and information science (Fig.1)
as it is the incorporation of digital and electronic components
in everyday textiles and clothes. From the
textile point of view, e-textiles need to be designed to exhibit physical
properties similar to those of traditional textiles such as bendable, stretchable,
and washable while keeping good electrical conductivity. In
addition, the e-textiles should have greater flexibility in tailoring to the
needs of the users and applications. This paper is concerned with the
evaluation of E-textiles.
