Jacquard – the intelligent jacket
– An attempt to bridge the gap between Physical and Digital world.
It all starts with a conductive yarn woven into the fabric, in the same traditional way clothes are made.
- Interactive fabric
- Easy Washable
- Detachable smart tag
- Interaction by simple swipes and touches
- User programmable
Jacquard yarn structures combine thin, metallic alloys with natural and synthetic yarns like cotton, polyester, or silk, making the yarn strong enough to be woven on any industrial loom.
Jacquard is a blank canvas for the fashion industry. Designers can use it as they would any fabric, adding new layers of functionality to their designs, without having to learn about electronics.
– “if you can make Jacquard work with denim, you can do it with anything.” This is because denim goes through a notoriously tortuous manufacturing process, which involves the material being literally blasted with fire at one stage.
the whole interactive garment is washable and durable like regular denim.
- It is a detachable and USB rechargeable rubber dongle.
- It is the main controller, which connects via Bluetooth to your smartphone.
dongle. - It process all the information received from the conductive fibre and generates responses to them.
This conductive fibre senses your touch, pressure and even your hand’s position before you touch the fabric. And all the way you touch is understood by the fabric and responds accordingly.
User can program the smart tag and teach it their own gestures easily making it much more user-friendly.
