TexCon — Connected Textile

The objective of the project will be to develop intelligent sensors aimed at measuring biorythms (temperature and/or pressure) directly on the textiles selected during the SmartTeX project (MICA exploratory project 2014-2015). IS2M, which is currently developing electrochemical formulations in partnership with its Taiwanese colleagues, will be responsible for supplying and characterising soil-freeze deposits that will be deposited directly on textiles. The mechanical characterisations and qualitative validation tests will meet the standards of measurements of the textile industry and will be carried out by the IFTH. Once the textile-sensitive material association (sensor) has been completed, IREPA LASER will be in charge of activating the sensitive material by laser. This will demonstrate the possibility of laser engraving and cross-linking of this compound. Connections between the different elements of the sensor (circuit) will be made by selective laser metallisation using a method developed by IREPA LASER. Next, the I2M will characterise the sensor using the electronic test bench already developed as part of a cotutal thesis with his Taiwanese colleagues.
