The Rice University have recently underlined their white paper that is aimed at associating the production of a smart shirt that has the carbon nanotube thread woven into athletic shirts that have the ability to gather electrocardiogram and heart rate that can be compared with the standard issued monitors and beat chest-strapped monitors. The team behind the research note that these fibers have the ability to be extremely flexible and that the following shirts will also pertain to be machine washable. The team further quotes that there will be no need for smartwatches or chest straps if their current research model is vindicated.
The idea behind this current hypothesis was developed as the trend of “smart clothing” was catching up a real surge as the team quotes in their opening footnotes. Smart clothing is a method of integrating conductive nanotube embedded thread in order to weave certain functionality and viability into normal everyday wear apparel.The team notes that these fibers will function in the manner of metal wires but will be presented as washable, more comfortable than their counterparts, and will far less likely break when the body is in motion at an accelerated pace.
The team notes that the shirt/device will have to be snugged against the chest at all times in order to function at an acceptable rate. The researchers further note that nanotube induced fibers are soft and flexible which gives them the ability to be machine washable as these fibers can be machine-sewn into fabric like standard thread. The team incorporated a zigzag stitching pattern that allows the specially derived fiber to be held into place without breaking them. The fibers readily provide the ability to hold steady electrical conduit with the wearer’s skin as electrodes that are woven can serve electronic devices such as Bluetooth transmitters.
