Intelligent Textile Solutions
Redefining what’s possible through power and integration.
NEXT-TO-SKIN BREAKTHROUGHS
Technology Integration
Through extensive R&D we have cracked the code on the seamless integration of electronics into soft goods. Our own solutions range from biopotential and biomechanical sensing, to active heating and lighting, to the integration of third-party technologies into textiles.
Platform Features
Tested
Comprehensive testing is undertaken to ensure complete functionality and safety of electronics.
Washable
Electronically designed to be machine washable up to 50 wash cycles.
Seamless
Mastery of seamless integration of electronics to ensure comfort and aesthetic continuity.
Scale
Technologies and derived products designed and developed to be bulk compatible.
PLATFORMS
Integrated Technologies
A collection of intelligent sensors, actuators and next generation powering solutions integrated seamlessly into textiles.
Visibility
A next-to-skin washable active lighting system, that provides on-demand illumination up to 450ft to keep you visible and safe. By maximizing power utilization and reducing the number of light sources needed to cover a large area, our solution offers even and soft illumination that is genuinely versatile.
Thermal Regulation
Active heating through the seamless integration of wiring or conductive yarn into a fabric form-factor. This intelligent textile-based thermal regulation technology supports use cases ranging from microclimate regulation to pain management, and leverages the strategic placement of heating zones for optimal comfort and functionality.
Sensing
Through science and engineering, we have developed washable miniature sensors that can be integrated into apparel and soft goods. Our sensors can measure both Biopotential and Biometrics – we have created and integrated ECG, EMG, IMU, and temperature sensors into a variety of products. Our range of technologies provides design versatility for applications that are only limited by your imagination.
Touch Textiles
A touch-sensitive smart textile solution that can be seamlessly integrated into everyday electronics, allowing them to do more. Limited only by your imagination, this multi-functional technology can replace the need for traditional plastic interfaces & usher in a new era of connected and interactive soft goods.
Data Transfer
Fabric-based high-speed data transmission with limited interference and low resistance, at speeds of over 4gbps. Our flexible conductors are stretchable, water-resistant, and widely configurable, allowing for different mechanical profiles and bandwidth requirements. Ideal for use in next to skin applications ranging from virtual reality to performance monitoring.
Feedback
Embrace a responsive future, with the integration of electronic actuators into soft good solutions. We believe that feedback technology is widely applicable in wearables, from haptics for notification purposes, to TENS and EMS for chronic pain management. Our feedback systems are completely discrete and will not obstruct your normal range of motion
Flexible Battery
Adaptable battery for a multitude of wearable uses. Flexible, washable, semi-solid electrolyte construction that serves as the industry’s solution to these growing design needs. Greater freedom for designers results in better products for users, and customization.
Textile Circuitry
Integrating functionality into your textile product in an invisible and seamless manner.
Platform Application
Integration of technology into textiles to create robust, scalable,
and functional solutions
Respiration Sensing Bra
An ECG sensor integrated into a sports bra that measures heart rate, respiration, calories, and workout effort during high-intensity fitness workouts.
Motion Sensing Garment
An IMU sensor integrated into the waistband of running shorts to measure running-related biomechanics, such as pelvic rotation, speed, bounce rate, etc.
Haptic Feedback Pant
Haptic motors integrated seamlessly into yoga pants thattrack form and automatically zonally vibrate if incorrect form or technique was detected.
