Did you get enough steps in today? Maybe one day you’ll ask your ‘smart’ shirt. Dalvin Brown © Fudan University Researchers at China s Fudan University created an electronic textile capable of producing moving images on apparel. Nextiles, a National Science Foundation-backed textile company, wants to weave FitBit-like tech into textiles. It’s the latest addition to an evolving list of efforts to revolutionize the clothing we wear. The Brooklyn-based start-up last week launched its patented “smart fabric” a machine-washable material with built-in circuitry as a new way to capture biometric data. The first wave of the company’s technology is embedded in sportswear. The idea is that it enables athletes to measure their velocity, force, momentum and other metrics that you can’t get from today’s wearable wristbands and smartwatches.
