Beginning e-Textile Development
Apress (Verlag)
978-1-4842-6260-3 (ISBN)
This book presents the essential skills required to get started developing e-textiles. The code presented is built using MakeCode blocks, an easy-to-use visual programming language. You'll use the BBC micro:bit microcontroller for all the projects, and with few exceptions, they require no soldering and wiring. In the end, you'll be able to apply and sew electronics to wearables, garments, and fabrics in this emerging technology.
Beginning e-Textile Development presents the essentialcomponents to get you started with developing e-textiles.
What You'll Learn
Program with the BBC micro:bit
Add lights to your wearables using LED textiles
Use different textile sensors to measure heat, detect water, actuate attachments, and enable sense touch and pressure
Actuate attachments on wearables with muscle activity and heartbeat
Make chemistry-based color-changing fabrics using thermochromic pigments
Utilize Bluetooth Low Energy to send sensor data to mobile apps and WiFi to send sensor data to the ThingSpeak IoT analytics platform service
