Animated textiles and textile technology provide new research areas for implementation in many use cases, such as human computer interaction and the development of smart materials. Of these technologies, woven pressure sensors is an area that has been under researched as opposed to other textile technologies. Through cycles of experimental design research resistive based pressure sensing technology, will provide the knowledge to develop and test different versions of a woven sensor. The ultimate goal of this research is to develop a woven pressure sensor, that gives clear output signals when used. These woven sensors will then be utilized in a textile electronic interface to demonstrate the potential of this technology.
