Abstract
Electrotextiles (e-textiles) are fabrics made from yarns that carry electronic components. Circuits are made from such yarns by weaving. We describe the technical development of the concept of e-textiles, and briefly discuss three challenges: connectivity, materials and fabrication, and wear.
