Epidermal Visualized Health Monitoring System Based on Stretchable and Washable TPU Hybrid Conductive Microtextiles

Electronic textiles, an emerging class of electronic technology, offer exciting opportunities for seamless integration with the human body. Numerous applications have been developed based on electronic textiles. However, researches on integrating multiple electronic textile-based devices are still few. In this study, we present a system integrated with an electrocardiogram monitoring sensor and an electroluminescence device based on stretchable and washable conductive microtextiles. The signal is acquired by an electrocardiograph amplifier and displayed by a dual-color electroluminescence device based on the processed results. The integrated electronic device has excellent moisture permeability and comfort for long-term wearing. The system reported in this study opens a new avenue for the application of electronic textiles in health monitoring, robotic prosthetics, and competitive sports.
