Chemistry Chemistry, Physical Energy & Fuels Materials Science Materials Science, Multidisciplinary Physical Sciences Physics Physics, Applied Physics, Condensed Matter Science & Technology Technology
Due to the ubiquity of textiles in the lives, electronic textiles (E-textiles) have emerged as a future technology capable of addressing a myriad of challenges from mixed reality interfaces, on-garment climate control, patient diagnostics, and interactive athletic wear. However, providing sufficient electrical power in a textile form factor has remained elusive. To address this issue, different approaches are discussed, starting with supercapacitors' advantages and limitations and material choices for textile-based supercapacitors before discussing proper data analysis and design considerations of textile-based energy storage to power wearable electronics.
