E-textiles are fabrics that can have digital components and electronics embedded in them. They are classified based on how classical electronic devices are mounted and the electronic functions they enable. Construction kits like LilyPad Arduino and Aniomagic allow people to make e-textiles. E-textiles are beneficial because they are flexible, don't require wires, can sense over large surface areas, and are invisible to others. They also have low-cost manufacturing. E-textiles have electrical and mechanical properties like flexibility, washability and sewability. Some applications of e-textiles include health monitoring, sports training, hazardous personnel monitoring, soldier tracking, driver fatigue monitoring, innovative fashion, and helping regain lost senses.
