Google declared that it's working on creating attire from specially woven material with touch-screen management capabilities. Google disclosed this at the internet titan’s annual developers’ conference, by Project Jacquard, and named levi Strauss as its 1st partner.
It is named after a Frenchman, who invented a type of loom, The smart material was disclosed in an area set up to resemble cloth popping out of a loom. it is done by weaving conductive threads into fabric. The special threads can be woven into a wide array of fabrics and be created to visually stand out or go unnoticed, depending on the design. conductivity can be restricted to desired components of the fabric or spread across the whole cloth.
Just like a normal fabric, this cloth also can be stretchy and washable . conductive yarn was connected to tiny circuits, no larger than jacket buttons, with miniaturized physics that would use algorithms to acknowledge touches or swipes. data can be sent wirelessly to smartphones or other devices, enabling actions like making phone calls or sending messages with brushes of cloth
Project Jacquard is within the hands of a small Google team referred to as advanced technology and projects (ATAP), Project Jacquard makes it possible to weave touch and gesture interactivity into any textile using standard, industrial looms, according to Google. anything involving fabric — from suits or dresses to piece of furniture or carpet — may potentially have computer touch-pad style control capabilities woven into it.
