An Overview of Textile Interfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we aim to provide an overview on textile interfaces in regard to three main aspects: education, applied technologies and ways of interaction. The research in this field is still at an early stage and we find that there are a lot of opportunities for future work. Textile interfaces offer a broad range of advantages to the educational world in terms of engagement, aesthetics and diversity, but still possess some drawbacks which need to be addressed. The technology behind textile interfaces spread across several fields like electrical and computing engineering, but also sewing, fashion, and arts. The paper presents new technologies like piezoelectric materials and thermoelectric generator that helped the development of textile interfaces. We also explore the interaction aspect of the field as we try to find out which gestures are acceptable and the criteria to make such choices.

متن کاملAtmospheric pressure plasma-initiated chemical vapor deposition (AP-PiCVD) of poly(diethylallylphosphate) coating: a char-forming protective coating for cellulosic textile.
An innovative atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition method toward the deposition of polymeric layers has been developed. This latter involves the use of a nanopulsed plasma discharge to initiate the free-radical polymerization of an allyl monomer containing phosphorus (diethylallylphosphate, DEAP) at atmospheric pressure. The polymeric structure of the film is evidence by mass spectrom...
