This paper reports the prototype development of a
novel intelligent textile technology based on the
integration of silicon flexible skins with regular textiles.
This novel approach enables the embedding of sensing
and computational components into textiles without
compromising the flexibility and wearability of the
textiles. Silicon flexible skins have been successfully
fabricated using micromachining techniques. A prototype
of intelligent textiles has been realized by stitching a
silicon flexible skin onto a piece of KEVLAR fabric.
Preliminary tests have demonstrated excellent durability
of the prototype.
