RF Shielding Curtains-many uses!
RF Shielding Curtains-many uses! RF Shielding Curtains made with Conductive Metalized Textiles, block the passage or RFI/EMI. This characteristic makes them useful in many ways! One of the major uses of RF Shielding Curtains is in warehouses, where they make keeping accurate inventory records easy. Areas of the warehouse can be "sectioned off" from other areas, eliminating "RF Crosstalk" between adjacent areas during scanning. In a similar fashion, curtained separation of hospital telemetry areas enables wireless collection of vital...

Compatibility-Succeeding by Working together!
Compatibility-Succeeding by Working together! I have forty years of experience of operating a dental practice. Dentistry is full of Type A personalities. Type A personalities tend to clash much of the time, the resulting tension makes working in the same environment difficult at times due to personality differences. In a shared electromagnetic environment, the same clashing can occur. All electronic devices emit RF radiation, if the radiation present in the environment allows the devices to work optimally, the devices are...

Conductive Textiles are used Everywhere!
Conductive Textiles are used Everywhere! The medical field has many uses for conductive textiles. Conductive metalized textiles act as sensors, measuring vital functions such as brain waves, and temperature. Hospital beds become smart, sensing a patient leaving the bed. Pressure sensing buttons summon nurses to the patient's room when necessary. These even detect wetness of the bedding! Metalized textiles are useful in physical therapy as electrodes applying current to stimulate muscles or nerves as part of the patient's healing and...

Technical Embroidery-Flexible Conductive “Wires”!
Technical Embroidery-Flexible Conductive "Wires"! I think of embroidery as "decoration" of garments. Logos, names on uniforms, hats, come to mind when I think about embroidery. The final result is intricate, colorful and adds to the appearance of the embroidered item. Technical embroidery is useful as a way to conduct electricity and data in smart textiles. Using threads and yarns that are plated with Silver, the most conductive element, embroidery is about function now! Hospital garments have embroidered electrodes and sensors...
