An e-textile mat with capacitive textile sensors was designed and manufactured to monitor body position and prevent decubitus ulcers in the case of bedridden people. The sensors were incorporated through a process of machine embroidery with electrically conductive threads. A new production method for the conductive threads is still expected to be developed, resulting in good conductive properties, high wear resistance and durability. Samples of five variants of motifs without cross-stitching were studied, and the capacity and electrical resistance were determined experimentally. A prototype of the e-textile mat was made with a motif showing the best ratio between the inserted thread and the measured capacity. A hardware solution and a software application for collecting, processing and visualizing the received inf.....ReadMore

The accessory and home textile industry are as promising and lucrative as apparel industry as far as employment, entrepreneurship and innovative product development is concerned. Although industry is vital means of livelihood for workforce and mode of exploration and experimentation for novice designers, the unorganized supply chain with emphasis on fast and affordable fashion by consumers has led to several detrimental impacts on environment and social well-being. The mass production of accessories and home textiles not only overburden the entire supply chain, but the wellbeing of workforce is completely neglected. It thus becomes imperative to incorporate the sustainable principles in accessory and home textile manufacturing. While designers, manufacturers and retailers are playing their part by adopting s.....ReadMore

Subtractive Mixture of Two Reflectance Curves Suppose we have the reflectance curves for two colors we wish to mix subtractive. After researching the web for insight into this, I found that multiplying the reflectance curves together is a step in the right direction, Size does matter when doing some embroidery work. Many users of home embroidery and sewing machines have become very creative, as sewers are known to be, by using their home embroidery machine. But will mimic a special type of subtractive mix that results from passing white light through two colored filters, assuming the filters have transmittance curves matching the reflectance curves of two colored objects. Although in embroidery machine where designs are enhanced with different stitch types, angles, and effects, but in the present research ha.....ReadMore

The word “anthropometry” is gotten from the Greek word “anthropo” meaning “human” and the Greek word “metron” meaning “measure” [1]. Anthropometry is the study of estimating the human body & its parts [2]. The adult persons are the main productive source of any country. In Bangladesh adults are mostly working people & they mostly work in the industrial section. But in Bangladesh there is no appropriate anthropometry data for adult persons. Anthropometry is the key factor of workplace design. Anthropometric data is very essential for product design, machine design & other applications. So, the study was important to conduct for ergonomics intervention. Anthropometry is very commonly used as a tool to estimate the nutritional status of populations, and to monitor the growth and health of individuals. There are three most.....ReadMore

In our country, the readymade garments industry acts as a catalyst for our development. The “Made in Bangladesh” tag has also brought glory to the country, making it a prestigious brand across the globe. Bangladesh, which was once termed by cynics a “bottomless basket”, has now become a “basket full of wonders” by maintaining a 6% annual average GDP growth rate and has brought about remarkable social and human development [1] (Figure 1). But in Bangladesh, apparel factories don’t make vast production of clothing for our people. They are very much focused on export to EU countries and so on. Besides this export scenario, several clothing brands in our country try to run their production with the help of stock load products. A huge amount of people depends upon those stock loaded products which are ordered by foreign buyers an.....ReadMore

The resistance formulation for a metal conductor is well-known to all students. It scales with the ratio of its length to the square of the radius. For non-metal conductors, e.g., a wearable fabric sensor, this formulation becomes totally invalid, and a fractal modification has to be adopted. This paper employs the two-scale fractal theory to establish a scaling law for the resistance of a carbon-based sensor material for smart fabric applications, and an experiment is carried out to verify the new formulation. The resistance property of a conductive wearable fabric sensor is the most important in smart fabric applications, especially in continuous health monitoring [1]. The resistance calculation is far different from that for a conductor. A conductor is the cornerstone in the fundamental theory of circuit and its resistance can be calcu.....ReadMore
