Abstract
Smart electronic textiles with electronic functions like displaying can provide transformative opportunities for wearable devices that traditional rigid devices are hard to realize. A general strategy of enabling textiles to display is weaving light-emitting fibers into textiles and designing control circuits. However, it remains challenging for the current electronic textiles to display full-color images and videos. Here, we demonstrate a large-area integrated electronic textile system (with a size of 72 cm × 50 cm) by weaving light-emitting diode (LED) fibers, touch-sensing fibers and polyester fibers, which could display full-color images (with a gamut of 117.6% NTSC) and continuous videos (with a refresh rate of 11.7 Hz) by designing low-voltage supply mode and parallelly transmitting circuits. After integration of touch-sensing fibers, such textile system could achieve various touch display and interactive functions like smart phones or computers, including hand input of text, hand painting, computing and playing games. The stability and durability of textile system withstanding 5000 bending cycles was also demonstrated for wearable applications. The integrated electronic textile system shows similar flexibility and breathability with regular textiles, which is promising to serve as new human-machine interface to change the way in which people interact with electronics.
期刊介绍:
Science China Materials (SCM) is a globally peer-reviewed journal that covers all facets of materials science. It is supervised by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and co-sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the National Natural Science Foundation of China. The journal is jointly published monthly in both printed and electronic forms by Science China Press and Springer. The aim of SCM is to encourage communication of high-quality, innovative research results at the cutting-edge interface of materials science with chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering. It focuses on breakthroughs from around the world and aims to become a world-leading academic journal for materials science.
