AI 中文摘要
本文提出Textro,一款用于设计、制作和测试无焊料无芯片智能纺织品界面的原型制作工具包。与依赖刚性组件或焊接连接的现有方法不同,Textro仅需现成材料和工具即可让用户构建功能性纺织品界面。该工具包整合了三个部分:(1)基于网页的设计环境,用于导入缝纫图案、定义传感元件,并基于实验自动生成优化的组件与电路设计;(2)制作流程,生成刺绣机和切割机的制作文件,其中刺绣优化为单笔触连续缝合路径,组件通过基于胶水的附着方法经电容耦合组装;(3)读取设备与软件,用于无线获取传感器数据并可视化实时传感器信号。我们通过四个应用实例展示Textro,并开展了针对时尚专家、制作者和新手的用户研究,凸显其可用性及在智能纺织品原型制作中的潜力。
英文摘要
In this paper, we present Textro, a prototyping toolkit for designing, fabricating, and testing solderless and chipless smart textile interfaces. Unlike prior approaches that rely on rigid components or soldered connections, Textro enables users to build functional textile interfaces using only readily available materials and tools. The toolkit integrates three parts: (1) a web-based design environment for importing sewing patterns, defining sensing elements, and automatically generating optimized component and circuit designs based on empirical experiments; (2) a fabrication pipeline that generates fabrication files for embroidery and cutting machines, with embroidery optimized for one-stroke continuous stitching paths and components assembled through glue-based attachment methods via capacitive coupling; and (3) a reader device and software for wirelessly retrieving sensor data and visualizing real-time sensor signals. We demonstrate Textro through four application examples and conduct a user study with fashion experts, makers, and novices, highlighting its usability and potential for smart textile prototyping.
