Design of e-textiles for acoustic applications

چکیده
The concept of replacing threads with flexible wires and sensors in a fabric to provide an underlying platform for integrating electronic components is known as e-textiles. This concept can be used to design applications involving different types of electronic components including sensors, digital signal processors, microcontrollers, color-changing fibers, and power sources. The adaptability of the textiles to the needs of the individual and the functionality of electronics can be integrated to provide unobtrusive, robust, and inexpensive clothing with novel features. This thesis focuses on the design of e-textiles for acoustic signal processing applications. This research examines challenges encountered when developing e-textile applications involving distributed arrays of microphones. A framework for designing such applications is presented. The design process and the performance analysis of two e-textiles, a large-scale beamforming fabric and a speech-processing vest, are presented. I would like to dedicate this thesis to my grandfather Late Kadri. Srinivas. Shenoy. I would not be who I am and where I am without his blessings.

Modeling of Power Consumption and Fault Tolerance for Electronic Textiles
The developments in textile technology now enable the weaving of conductive wires into the fabrics. This allows the introduction of electronic components such as sensors, actuators and computational devices on the fabrics, creating electronic textiles (etextiles). E-textiles can be either wearable or non-wearable. However, regardless of their form, e-textiles are placed in a tightly constrained...

The traditional textile art has passed a path along with the royal figurative paintings of the court, which was dynamic in the first period of the Qajar era, and it went out of progress in the second period, because of the flourishing of naturalism. Despite the boom at the beginning, the traditional textiles found many substitutes with the arrival of industrial fabrics in the middle of the ment...

The integration of wires and electronics in e-textiles has many potential applications for wearable computing. One method which allows dense electronics modules on an e-textile is to create attachments composed of conventional electronics devices on a PCB. These attachments can use a variety of methods to connect to wires in an e-textile. This design allows for etextile electronics modules whic...
