Tracks: Campfire: Advanced Textiles., E-Textiles Discussion

Madison will share key findings, experiments, and results from the last five years of building the LOOMIA Electronic Layer. This presentation will review our 5 years of research and the resulting philosophy we use to make e-textiles market-ready. From research to certification, this presentation is an in-depth share-all, exposing data and information about how our LEL (LOOMIA Electronic Layer) came to be. Takeaways: 1. Washability tests and outcomes. 2. Teardowns from market products and analysis that lead to our philosophy on e-textile construction. 3. Overview of failed experiments that we can all learn from. 4. A robust understanding of how complex e-textiles production can be and some of the main issues.
