E-textiles: The softer side of computing
نویسندگان
چکیده
This workshop connects attendees with a new area of computing, e-textiles and soft computing. Traditionally technology has been engineered with rigid materials, using assembly skills such as wiring and soldering. The new field of computational textiles explores using fabric in combination with sewn conductive thread to assemble computationally-enhanced textile materials. This workshop will engage attendees in constructing their own sewn circuit project, the precursor for more complex computationally-based e-textile projects.

Study on Wicking Measurement in Thin Layer Textiles by Processing Digital Images
The purpose of this work is to assess and develop experimental techniques that allowwicking measurement over a wide range of textiles. Various kinds of fabrics, nonwoven layers and anelectro spinning nylon layer were used as the test materials. A syringe is used to drop a 0.02 g spot ofdistilled water on the sample and a digital camera to take pictures simultaneously. When the wickingprocess st...
متن کاملe-TAGs: e-Textile Attached Gadgets
The integration of wires and electronics into textiles (e-textiles) has many potential applications for wearable and pervasive computing. Textiles are an integral part of everyday life, from clothing we wear to the carpet we walk upon. Being able to combine electronics with textiles would enable pervasive computing to blend into the background so that the user can go about a normal routine. One...
متن کاملComputing the Szeged index of 4,4 ׳-bipyridinium dendrimer
Let e be an edge of a G connecting the vertices u and v. Define two sets N1 (e | G) and N2(e |G) as N1(e | G)= {xV(G) d(x,u) d(x,v)} and N2(e | G)= {xV(G) d(x,v) d(x,u) }.The number of elements of N1(e | G) and N2(e | G) are denoted by n1(e | G) and n2(e | G) , respectively. The Szeged index of the graph G is defined as Sz(G) ( ) ( ) 1 2 n e G n e G e E . In this paper we compute th...
متن کاملCommunications in Electronic Textile Systems
Electronic textiles (e-textiles) are emerging as a novel method for constructing electronic systems in wearable and large area applications. This new type of processing system merges textile and electronic technologies. This paper studies the communication requirements between the computing and sensing elements of an e-textile. This communication is studied through the construction of a prototy...
متن کاملComputing Vertex PI Index of Tetrathiafulvalene Dendrimers
General formulas are obtained for the vertex Padmakar-Ivan index (PIv) of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) dendrimer, whereby TTF units we are employed as branching centers. The PIv index is a Wiener-Szeged-like index developed very recently. This topological index is defined as the summation of all sums of nu(e) and nv(e), over all edges of connected graph G.
