Smart textiles are those textiles which are embedded with electronic components that are interconnected with each other. The interconnections and components are embedded to the fabric, thus making it less visible and vulnerable of getting effected by surrounding objects or radio frequency wavelengths. The smart textile consists of components like sensors, actuators, control unit and many more. The smart textile is used for different application which includes health management, health monitoring, communication and actuation and response. These textiles are used in areas such as sports and fitness, automotive, military and defense, health care, entertainment and many others.
