Wellness-does Clothing play a Role?

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...

Silver is the most conductive element, making it logical to use where conductivity is important. TPU is important for insulation purposes in low voltage wire systems. The flexibility of both the yarn and TPU creates a benefit not found in metal wires. Metal wires are not the best conductors to use when the wire is subject to frequent...
