This proposal focuses on design and engineering of novel fibrous materials and devices that are integrated in form of multifunctional stretchable textiles for empowering revolutionary applications in smart textiles, health monitoring and internet of things (IoT). Recent advances in nanomaterials and devices on thin flexible plastic films highlight significant opportunity for development of electronics in form of yarn and textile that provide breathability, ruggedness and biological compatibility. In fact, in natural systems, different fibrous structures ranging from muscle fibers, nerves, and veins merge to form a complex functional system. Such systems highlight significant opportunity for electronic fibers and textiles with superior flexibility, low cost roll-to-roll manufacturing, improved biocompatibility and possibility for multifunctional designs. The market for electronic textile is expected to reach $70B by 2022 [1] with several sectors including health and wellness, sports, fashion, military and IoT.

该提案的重点是设计和工程新型纤维材料和设备，这些材料和设备以多功能可拉伸纺织品的形式集成，以实现智能纺织品，健康监测和物联网（IoT）的革命性应用。柔性塑料薄膜上的纳米材料和器件的最新进展突出了以纱线和纺织品形式开发电子产品的重要机会，这些纱线和纺织品提供透气性，耐用性和生物相容性。事实上，在自然系统中，不同的纤维结构，从肌肉纤维，神经和静脉合并，形成一个复杂的功能系统。这样的系统突出了电子纤维和纺织品具有上级柔性、低成本卷对卷制造、改善的生物相容性和多功能设计的可能性的重要机会。到2022年，电子纺织品市场预计将达到700亿美元[1]，其中包括健康和保健，体育，时尚，军事和物联网等多个领域。
