Wearable Sensing
• Sensor-based user monitoring for Context awareness– Awareness of: user’s physiological state, environment, social setting– Reduces cognitive load of wearable technology– Minimizes necessary amount of integrated technology
• Garment Integration– Minimally invasive sensing (vs. standard body sensing technologies)– Minimizes degree of adaptation required by user– Maximizes user comfort (physical, social)

Data Extraction from Garment Interactions
• Exploiting natural movements, garment features, and textile structures to obtain information– Detection of physical interactions between body and garment
• Using garment/textile as sensor– Intelligent textiles, monitoring of textile changes
• Minimizing foreign concepts/components– Eases user acceptance of innovation

Pressure-Sensitive Foam
• Polyurethane foam, coated with conductive polypyrrole polymer
• Pressure results in detectable increase in conductance
• Soft, washable sensor
• Foam substrate allows detection of deformations of the structure: bends and compressive forces
• Does not rely on extension of fabric

Problems
• Sensor baseline drift: 26.6% of total resistance per minute, due to hysteresis in foam substrate (after 2 hr relax period resistance returns to “normal”)
• Sensor oxidation: gradual reduction in resistance over time due to oxidation of polymeric backbone
• Precision of sensor: presence of noise
