FAQ — Integrated textile sensors
Which types of sensors can be integrated into textiles?
ECG/EMG electrodes, respiration, temperature, IMU, flexion, pressure, vibration, hydration and skin conductance.
Are textile sensors washable?
Yes. All our architectures are validated with repeated washing cycles, using dedicated encapsulation and overmoulding techniques.
Do you develop the associated electronics?
Yes. We develop electronic modules, firmware and signal processing to ensure a complete textile-to-data chain.
Can multiple signals be measured on the same garment?
Absolutely. We design synchronised multi-sensor architectures: ECG + IMU + respiration + temperature.
