sound power is considered as an excellent measure for evaluating the efficiency of noise controls as well as for comparing noise sources in workrooms. this parameter can be determined by sound pressure or intensity based methods in real conditions of workrooms. this paper aims empirically to compare these in situ methods in relation to a typical industrial machine located in workroom in terms o...

We present a new methodology to create colorful textile antennas that can be embroidered within logos or other aesthetic shapes. Conductive threads (e-threads) have already been used in former embroidery unicolor approaches as attributed to the corresponding conductive material, viz. silver or copper. But so far, they have not been adapted to ‘print’ colorful textile antennas. For the first tim...

WearUI, abbreviation for Wearable User Interface, is embroidery over textile which is an interface for handheld devices like mobile phones. The piece of embroidery has been designed elegantly to foster intuitive interaction and can be sewed over any part of the clothing. User interacts with the embroidery through various gestures to control the MP3 player and handle calls, while getting a hapti...

In this article, the design, production method, integration and characterization of textile sensors for the continuous monitoring of cardiac and respiration vital signals are presented. Textile electrodes, capacitive and piezoresistive sensors and respective interconnect plate were developed and integrated in elastic and adjustable chest bands, using a 6-needle digital embroidery machine and el...

As a key component of Chinese cultural tradition, Ethnic and folk culture proves the hotbed that nourishes the national spirit. The embroidery of the Miao ethnic community (“Miao embroidery” for short) exemplifies the best of Chinese ethnic and folk culture. Integrating at once the historical, aesthetic, and moral values, the Miao embroidery provides a high-quality resource for artistic educati...

This paper will review the evolution of wearable textile antennas over the last couple of decades. Particular emphasis will be given to the process of embroidery. This technique is advantageous for the following reasons: (i) bespoke or mass produced designs can be manufactured using digitized embroidery machines; (ii) glue is not required and (iii) the designs are aesthetic and are integrated i...

In the last decades, embroidery getting much attention in industries and academics. Although technique is very old, it still adopted. The current era of machine learning smart devices makes this method even more attractive, easy to adopt high accuracy. proposed research work aims highlight implementation new field, based on microcontrollers. Adopting will be feasible transform from old sewing a...

Embroidery is a part of the needlework that is one of the four virtues of women in ancient times, including “appearance, speech, needlework and behavior”. (Chen Baoliang, 2004) The education of women in old times mainly focused on the "feminine virtues" and "needlework". Due to cultivation at an early age, the upper-class women were mostly clever and intelligent, and did not have to earn their ...
