Design and Evaluation of Wearable Electronics (E-Textile)

Abstract

La tecnología E-Textile es el futuro de la ropa ya que dara al usuario la oportunidad de llevar Componentes electrónicos en su ropa. Los hilos conductores son un elemento crucial para el E-Textile ya que permiten una fácil conexión entre los diferentes componentes. El primer objetivo de este proyecto es analizar los hilos conductores para obtener su caracterización en diferentes condiciones operacionales. Un importante problema que se ha encontrado es el efecto de la piel humana en los hilos conductores junto con algunos componentes. Para realizar el estudio se ha utilizado la plataforma Arduino juntamente con los hilos conductores más comúnmente usados, los de acero inoxidable. El segundo objetivo del proyecto es desarrollar una aplicación usando componentes de E-Textile para desarrollar un detector de caídas. Para crearlo, se ha utilizado un 9-DOF sensor que contiene un acelerómetro, un giroscopio y un magnetómetro, cosido en una camiseta junto con un Arduino usando los hilos conductores. Se han desarrollado diferentes algoritmos de detección de caída y se han testeado para encontrar el más eficiente y preciso.

Els fils conductors són un element crucial per l’E-Textile ja que permeten una fàcil connexió entre els diferents components. El primer objectiu d’aquest projecte es analitzar els fils conductors per obtenir la seva caracterització en diferents condicions operacionals. Un important problema que s’ha trobat és l’efecte de la pell humana en els fils conductors alhora de rebre lectures d’alguns sensors. Per realitzar l’estudi s’ha utilitzat la plataforma Arduino juntament amb els fils conductors més utilitzats comunament, els d’acer inoxidable. El segon objectiu del projecte es desenvolupar una aplicació utilitzant components E-Textile per desenvolupar un detector de caigudes. Per crear-lo, s’ha utilitzat un 9-DOF sensor que conte un acceleròmetre, un giroscop i un magnetòmetre, cosit a una samarreta juntament amb un Arduino utilitzant fils conductors. S’han desenvolupat diferents algoritmes de detecció de caigudes i s’han testejat per tal de trobar el més eficient i precís.

E-Textile is the future of clothing, providing added values to the wearer using electronic components embedded into fabrics. Conductive yarns are a crucial component for E-Textile enabling the connection of different components. The first objective of this project was to analyze off-the-shelf conductive yarns doing their performance characterization in different operational conditions. An important issue found is the effect of human skin contact with the conductive yarn on the performance of sensor readings. To do this study an Arduino platform is used along with the most common type of conductive yarns: stainless steel. The second objective of this project was to develop an application using e-textile components, specifically to develop a fall detector. For this, a 9-DOF sensor that has an accelerometer, a gyroscope and a magnetometer is sewn to a t-shirt along with the Arduino platform using conductive yarns. Several fall detector algorithms has been implemented and tested to find the most efficient algotithm for the fall detection.

In this project, first, the analysis of the state of the art in wearable electronics will be done. Next, the design and evaluation of wearable electronic systems will be performed.
