New Dynamics of Ageing. The design for ageing well project will focus on bringing emerging wearable technologies to active members of older age groups who do not suffer from restrictive medical conditions.

New Dynamics of Ageing

The proposal will address “Ageing well across the lifecourses: autonomy and independence” with a multi-disciplinary team incorporating researchers from technical textiles, wearable electronics and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), and social and care sectors, with active participation from the users.

Research Papers

Nano-tera. Laboratory for Engineered Human Protection at Philadelphia University. The Laboratory for Engineered Human Protection at Philadelphia University was founded in August 2004 and is funded under a Department of Defense University Research Initiative grant.

Laboratory for Engineered Human Protection at Philadelphia University

The grant has been renewed each year and the Laboratory is currently funded through August 2008. Additional funding has been appropriated in the DoD FY 2008 spending bill. Work is carried out under a contract with the Natick Soldier Center, Natick MA and modified annually to specific and jointly determined objectives each year. The Laboratory’s charter is to create garments that protect American servicemen and women against battlefield hazards and are also sufficiently comfortable to wear for periods required by the mission. This is a substantial challenge especially for the Laboratory’s principal focus to date—protection against chemical warfare agents—because increasing the protection adds to the garment’s weight and extent to which it encapsulates the body. SubTela Home. High-Low Tech. XS. E-Textile Research Lab. E-Textiles Lab Advancing research in e-textiles. What are E-Textiles? Electronic textiles (e-textiles) are fabrics that have electronics and interconnections woven into them, with physical flexibility and size that cannot be achieved with existing electronic manufacturing techniques.

Components and interconnections are intrinsic to the fabric and thus are less visible and not susceptible to becoming tangled together or snagged by the surroundings. An e-textile can be worn in everyday situations where currently available wearable computers would hinder the user.
