Integration of a Bluetooth Based ECG System into Clothing

Abstract: This article describes the methods used to integrate a Bluetooth based ECG System into a T-Shirt. Some of the components are integrated into the garment, while the flexible electronic system is removable so that the garment can be washed. Technologies that need to be improved for manufacturing smart clothes were identified.

“…Conductive textiles have during the last decade become an interesting research area since it has applications in medicine [16,83,86,88], health prevention and military interests [119]. One main feature is that the technology can be bodyborne, opening new possibilities for monitoring physiological parameters, signal transmission, embedded communication systems, heat regulation, impact detection etc [14].…”

“…The fabric substrates are also suitable for incorporation of optical sensors, reflective or camouflage materials, communications networking, or fiberoptic cable interfaces. Ottenbacher, Romer, Kunze, Grosmann, and Stork (2004) developed a Bluetooth-based ECG shirt. In this shirt, ECG electrodes are used for the input interface system.…”

“…In other cases, the electrodes were produced of textile materials, but separately from the suit/vest in which they would later be integrated by sewing or another joining process [6][7] [8]. Yet other researchers [9][10] produced fabrics in which the electrodes were knitted into the fabric itself, thus achieving a total integration with the textile.…”
