3. Smart textile
• Smart textiles means intelligent textiles.
• During the last decade, textiles have entered a new era, the one
of smart textiles.
• It can sense and react to environmental condition or stimuli.
• It can also sense and respond in a predetermined way.

4. Components
• There are three components
in smart textile material
– Sensor
• Sensors provide a nerve system
to detect signals.
– Actuator
• Actuators act upon the signals.
– Controlling Units
• Controlling Units produce an
appropriate output.

5. Classification
• There are three categories
depending on functional activity:
• Passive smart textile
– Using sensor only.
– Only sense the environment change.
• Active smart textile
– Using sensor and actuator.
– Sense and react with environmental
changing.
• Very or ultra smart textile
– Sensor, actuator and controlling unit
present in textile.
– Can sense, react and adapt
themselves to environment.

6. End Use
• Smart textile used for the
following broad categories:
– Comfort wear
– Heat protection
– Medical application
– Military application
– Computing textile
– Fashion
– Aviation
– Space research

7. Methods of making smart textile
• Components of smart textile
may be acting from fiber optics,
phase change material, shape
memory material etc.
• Those components from an
integrated part of textile
structure and can be
incorporated into the substrate
at any of the following levels.
– Fiber spinning level
– Yarn / Fabric formation level
– Finishing level

8. Sensor for recording
• Life shirt which are weaved
by special technique with
optical fiber.
• This optical fiber transmit
human physiological
parameter.
• Also intelligent shirt
monitors presence of
poisonous gases in the air
and protect human body from
it.

9. Sensor for recording
• In construction, sensor laid in
composite structures can be
used to:
– Monitor strain and temperature
throughout a composite
structure
– Detection of crack in composite
structure
– Monitor concrete structure.

10. What Lies Ahead?
• The range and variety of high performance textiles that have been developed
to meet present and future requirements are now considerable.
• They should include tera and nano scale magnitudes, complexity, cognition
and holism.
• Fibers are relentlessly replacing traditional materials in many more
applications. From super-absorbent diapers, to artificial organs, to
construction materials for moon-based space stations.
• Biological tissues and organs, like ears and noses, are grown from textile
scaffolds made from bio-degradable fibers.
• Integrated with nano-materials, textiles are imparted with very high energy
absorption capacity and other functions such as stain proofing, abrasion
resistance, light emission, etc.
• In future Smart textile have artificial intelligence brain.
