SMART TEXTILES SALON
September 25, 2009, Ghent, Belgium
The programme is organised together with 80th Anniversary of the Department of Textiles at Ghent University and 6th International Conference on Textile and Polymer Biotechnology.

The exhibition introduces the latest demonstrator and prototype developments in the field of smart textiles and intelligent wearable systems. The displayed items will be explained and demonstrated by the developers.

Tool Time gives you the opportunity to create your own smart textile. Two workshops will be offered: elucidating textiles, temperature changing textiles.

Unfortunately the website does not have any more details on the workshops which is a shame. Hopefully more information will be posted online well before the event…..

There is still an open call for prototypes to be included in the exhibition. The organisers are particularly interested in prototypes ‘that give warmth or sound, or that can sense. The call closes on the 30th of June.
