Hunter's comment

Try to imagine your table cloth with lighting control, or having a cute musical handbag with you wherever you go. Yes, these are possible with SensorKnits!

SensorKnits are textile sensors created on a computerized knitting machines.
^{-from the video}

Through SensorKnits, the knit structure is carefully designed with conductive and dielectric yarns. with such properties of the yarn, the resistance of the knitted fabric can be controlled through a program. This application has proven use cases which are presented on the video below.

Watch the video to see how it works.

Hi @macoolette,

Thanks for yet another hunt. I’ve reviewed and approved it. Mostly because I think this is truly innovative tech, not because it is yet another academic study.
