Conductive Textile’s role in Automotive Innovation!
Conductive Textile's role in Automotive Innovation! Automobiles are becoming increasingly dependent on electronic devices. Where you find electronic devices, you will often find conductive textiles. The initial role for conductive textiles in automobiles was shielding the radio from RFI, allowing the radios to play music clearly. Amazingly, one of the primary applications in the automotive industry is still electromagnetic interference (EMI) and Radio-frequency interference (RFI) shielding. Due to ever the ever-increasing number of electronic components in vehicles, ensuring smooth operation...

Conductive Textiles help make Travelling Safe!
Conductive Textiles help make Travelling Safe! Planes, trains, and automobiles depend on conductive textiles in many ways. They keep the driver or pilot aware of the engagement of safety restraints by the passengers before beginning the trip. If you drive automobiles, you are well aware that there are sensors present in the steering wheel that determine if the driver is in proper position and paying attention to his surroundings. If the car wanders in its lane, sensors notice this and...

Technical Embroidery-Conductive Yarn “Wires”!
Technical Embroidery-Conductive Yarn "Wires"! Smart clothing requires durable conductive wires! I'm asking you to "think outside the box" when it comes to the term "wire". In the case of clothing a classic "metal wire" leaves quite a bit to be desired. It is rigid and doesn't like the movements of the human body. Flexing a metal wire leads to stress cracks, and ultimately failure of the wire. Additionally, metal wires in clothing are not exactly "comfortable" for the wearer, we...
