Electronic-textiles (e-textiles) incorporate electronic functionality into textiles by using conductive materials. They contain conductive yarns or fibers and can be produced using textile manufacturing techniques. E-textiles allow for innovative designs and integration of sensors, displays and other electronics into fabrics and garments. They provide benefits like flexibility, comfort and low-cost production compared to rigid electronics. However, challenges remain around reliability, mass production costs and limited processing capability due to power constraints. Ongoing research aims to address these issues and further the applications of intelligent textile technologies.
According to engineering curriculum we have to choose a topic which is currently trending in the engineerig field. So, I had prepared a ppt on the topic Smart Fabrics for my seminar. You can also refer to this ppt . I hope this ppt would be informative for you. I have also uploaded the pdf of seminar report for this topic.
In this slide i am sharing introduction to E Textile and thier application in daily life .
An e-textile is a fabric developed with electronics in it to
enable conductivity and the use of various technologies.
• Electronic textiles may be embedded with sensors, batteries
LEDs and hands-free computing devices.
• The field of electronic textiles combines the worlds of
textiles and electronics, and explores techniques that
redefine construction methods .
• They usually contain conductive yarns that are either spun
or twisted and incorporate some amount of conductive
material to enable electrical conductivity.
E-Textile Applications
There are several applications of e-textiles,
ranging from healthcare to consumer goods.
Health Monitoring :
The most well-researched application of
e-textiles is medical. Specifically, the
monitoring of health conditions.
Currently, there are medical wearables
that have been invented to monitor
several aspects of a person’s health, such
as blood pressure, heart rate, and
symptoms of disease.
Worker Safety :
Occupational safety is another area where e-textiles
can provide a great deal of service. One hypothetical
use is for construction workers who are working
outdoors late at night. LED lights can be affixed to a
uniform and automatically turn on when it gets dark
outside, improving visibility.
A favorable feature among drivers is heated seats. Who
doesn’t like being blanketed in warmth while driving?
While it is often a luxury, heated seats and steering
wheels are essential for drivers in frigid temperatures.
Smart Fabrics are ones which can change automatically to their surrounding. Smart fabrics are being developed to be able to sense what is happening to the wearer or its immediated surroundings.

Smart Textile
Smart textiles are defined as textiles that can sense and react via an active control mechanism to environmental conditions or stimuli, such as mechanical, thermal, magnetic, chemical, electrical, or other sources. They are able to sense and respond to external conditions (stimuli) in a predetermined way.
this presentation tells about smart textile and shows some of the example with the use
Smart textiles have been called e-textiles or intelligent textiles, electro active textiles, wearable electronics, and textronic depending on the approach.
The textile industry is about to take a giant step from being a supplier of fabrics to become a positive force in the development of society. Textile innovations improve people’s everyday lives and benefit the industry, the health care sector and the environment.
Smart textiles can be defined as textiles that are able to sense and respond to changes in their environment.
The integration of electronics in clothing promises a variety of new products and applications. . Whether for performance or aesthetic reasons, the focus within the textiles orb is on smart fabrics – from those that change their hue to those that regulate body temperature. Researchers are developing smart fabrics that do things that traditional fabrics cannot.

Industry 4.0: Merging Internet and FactoriesFabernovel
Industrial IoT and connected objects for factories are part of our research at FABERNOVEL OBJET, our activity dedicated to IoT.
The future of industry is at the crossroads of internet and factories. Some call it INDUSTRY 4.0 or FACTORY 4.0 in reference to the upcoming fourth industrial revolution. Governments and private companies in Germany, UK and the USA have acknowledged the importance of industrial IoT and its central role in future industrial transformation.
The adoption of Industrial Internet has both near-term and long-term impacts and will be characterized by the emergence of new models such as the “Outcome Economy” and the “Autonomous, Pull Economy”.
We believe that INDUSTRY 4.0 is a growth opportunity for industrial companies, and have decrypted this very phenomenon in the following presentation.

E-Textiles for Screening Respiratory Disorders along with Temperature MonitoringIJERA Editor
This paper presents a branch of research where e-textiles is used for bio monitoring. This set-up is used for
screening sleep apnea and to alert physicians when there is a case of Hyperthermia. This proposal is to monitor
patients with respiratory disorders or diseases/disorders whose symptoms manifest as respiratory abnormalities
and abnormal temperature, and make it available to the doctor by plotting the values in MATLAB. Conventional
techniques used for screening and monitoring respiratory abnormalities include devices like cannula, nasal strips
etc., which are grueling and strenuous, adding to the patients’ suffering. The connection of this cutting edge
electronics field with textiles will ultimately enable both the study of deviations in the breathing rate and
temperature
This lecture is on fiber-optics that consist of strands of optical fibers made from pure glass and sometime plastics that are as thin as a human hair to carry digital data information over long distances.
