Smart Fabric

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Smart Fabric has several meanings. A very common type of smart fabric is Gore-tex, called a smart fabric because of its material properties to let water or moisture flow in one direction and not the other. There are two more modern types of smart fabrics, one using nanotechnology such as carbon nanotubes or fireproof treatments, the other a combination of electronics and conductive fabrics for sensing a persons vital signs. Examples of these include Zephyr Technology BioHarness, that can also be built into a shirt or bra strap. This technology has also been applied to the Numetrex Adidas bra using Zephyrs BioSense electronic module.
