a goal of improving their safety, coordination and efficiency and additional systems for injured civilians aimed at optimising their survival management are developed. For this purpose a wearable interface for monitoring the operator‘s health status and surrounding environment potential risk sources, giving him/her useful real time information and/or alarms, as well as allowing data transmission between the operator and the central unit, will be created. 2.9.2.9 Stella Stella – Stretchable Electronics for Large Area Applications is an IST project that has started on February 1 st with duration of 4 years. Eleven partners from different European countries aim at developing integrated electronics in stretchable parts and products with stretchable conductors for use in healthcare, wellness and functional clothes. For this purpose the consortium modifies existing elastomers and non wovens substrates and develops conductor patterning and interconnection methods [222]. 2.9.2.10 OFSETH The OFSETH project – Optical fibre sensors embedded into technical Textile for Healthcare monitoring consists of a consortium composed of 11 partners from textile, optics and medical fields and 5 EU countries that started working together at March 1 st , 2006 for 3.5 years. The aim of OFSETH is the integration of optical fibres related technologies into functional textiles to extend the capabilities of wearable solutions for health monitoring. They use two main technologies, one based on Fibre Bragg Grating sensors and the other one based on Near Infrared Spectrometry. These technologies can permit to assess various parameters such as cardiac, respiratory rates and oximetry that will be investigated here but also pH or glucose concentration. In general, target applications are based on wearable static sensors to monitor cardiac and respiratory activity as well as oximetry, and wearable mobile sensors to demonstrate the wearability of FBG and fibre NIRS monitoring [223]. 2.9.2.11 Lidwine Lidwine is a four year lasting NMP project within the 6th framework programme of the European Commission. 21 partners from industry, research units and medical centres will work together on the integrated project dedicated to SME’s. The project focuses on the development of multifunctional medical textiles to prevent and treat decubitus wounds. Target applications include an antibacterial textile for wound care, integrated with medication depots including an active circulation support 139
andage. Therefore, active (controlled contractive cuff) and passive (textiles with integrated electrodes) system will be developed and applied. Further, drug capsules with an enzyme-based on/off switch for release will be developed. 2.9.2.12 Contex-T Contex-T is a European project dedicated to geotextiles. Within the scope of the project intelligent kinetic, scissor-like, structures are designed that serve as membranes for roof constructions. 2.9.2.13 Inteltex Inteltex is like Lidwine an integrated project of the European Commission with a 50% participation of SMEs. The overall objective of the INTELTEX project is to develop a new approach to obtain intelligent multi-reactive textiles integrating nano-filler based Conductive Polymer Composite (CPC)fibres. The consortium will work on various scientific and technical activities, ranging from CPC synthesis, the control of carbon nanotube dispersion in polymers to fabrication of CPC fibres and textiles. In a subsequent step, the developed materials will be used in specific applications including protective clothing, anti-theft devices and textiles for buildings and health. 2.9.2.14 Polytect The project is an integrated research project for SME partially funded by the European Community. The consortium of the Polytect project is working on polyfunctional technical textiles against natural hazards. The project aims at the development of multifunctional textile structures for application in construction for the retrofitting of masonry structures and earthworks [224]. 140
