AmbiKraf - Ubiquitous fabric display
نویسندگان
چکیده
AmbiKraf is a novel non-emissive animated fabric technology that is fast, color changing, and robust. Here we combine thermochromic ink with semiconductor heating/cooling technologies, embedded in soft fabrics. By developing a technology that makes the fabric itself change the color we present it as a ubiquitous display technology. We present our results through a various range of animated fabric prototypes. Through the use of AmbiKraf’s non emissive, subtle and calm color changing properties, we discuss its vision to develop a platform that allows the merging of complex technology into the rich traditions of textile arts and crafts to bring in a new meaning to such traditions.

Sensory Fabric for Ubiquitous Interfaces
Sensory Fabric is a technology that uses electrically conductive textiles to fabricate switches and sensors. In this article we examine how a number of broad device types, or form factors, can be reconfigured or made more ubiquitous by replacing their traditional interface hardware with Sensory Fabric. The implications of using a fabric solution are explored for handheld and personal devices, e...

For the past fifteen years Ubiquitous Computing researchers have been exploring how computing can be pushed beyond the traditional desktop environment and seamlessly “woven into the fabric of our everyday lives” [13]. Yet, despite such grand vision, the vast majority of UbiComp research is published and forgotten long before it has any impact on everyday life, let alone woven into its fabric. I...

Techset Com For the first time, the design, fabrication and testing of a dispenserprinted electrochromic (EC) display on fabric using Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) as the EC material are reported. The entire display is based on a lateral structural design in which the electrodes are located adjacent to each other in the same plane. The display is directly p...
متن کاملWeaving the Pervasive Information Fabric
As the pervasive computing infrastructure emerges, we consider the impact on information applications and their middleware requirements – what we call the pervasive information fabric. In particular, we consider the evolution of hypermedia link services to support the structuring of ad hoc information spaces. We describe a prototype implementation of an ad hoc distributed link service using a t...
