Integrating pressure sensors in fabrics for pressure ulcer prevention

Résumé

This invited lecture introduces the recently developed TexiSore device that aims at preventing pressure sores for persons with spinal cord injury. It is the result of ten years of research leading to an embedded device that should equip the wheelchair of the person. The recent breakthrough is the fact that this device is made of a 100% textile fabric able to continuously measure the pressures at the interface between the cushion and the buttock area. This textile is comfortable, washable and can be seen as a consumable since its fabrication process makes it low cost.
