The integration of flexible electronics into various industries has been a significant leap forward in technological innovation. Among these advancements, the Loomia Electronic Layer (LEL) stands out, particularly in its application as a flexible heating element in both the automotive and medical sectors.

The technological landscape is witnessing a paradigm shift with the introduction of flexible electronics, and the Loomia Electronic Layer (LEL) is at the vanguard of this transformation.The LEL is not just a component; it’s a catalyst for innovation, enabling a new generation of electronics that bend, stretch, and flex in ways previously unimaginable.

In the rapidly evolving world of technology, the quest for flexibility and integration in electronics has led to significant advancements in the field of printed electronics. Among these, the Loomia Electronic Layer (the LEL) stands out as a groundbreaking innovation that promises to transform the industry by providing an alternative to printing for TPU-based electronic systems.

We saw a lot of interesting progress made in the smart textiles/e-textiles realm this year, from new manufacturing techniques like programmable weaving to self-repairing materials. Here are our top 5 favorite e-textile advancements from 2023!

As makers of electronics and electronics-adjacent products, it is important to take stock of how we are making our products and where our products go after they have been used. Here are four innovative designs that utilize e-waste and revolutionize what it means for electronics to be sustainable.

In case you need to take care of a little last-minute shopping for the maker or creative technologist in your life, we have compiled our top 5 list of gifts!

Over the last month, we have been researching wearable device designs to see how our technology could potentially fit in to various products. One of our favorite sites to do this is Behance, and we found some great medical wearables that have triggered inspiration amongst the team!

There are many solutions out there for automotive designers and manufacturers to choose from when it comes to lighting the interior of a vehicle. How do e-textiles measure up against the rest?

It is a predicament faced by designers and engineers everywhere: “How am I making an impact with the products I am creating?”

Advancements in patient monitoring have become more innovative as the years go on. How have and how can e-textiles play a part in this growth?

Our design favorites for the month of September illustrate how e-textiles can be used for visual and auditory masterpieces that also aid in rich user experiences.

In case you missed the webinars or needed a refresher—we put together our key takeaways for your review.

Last month, an article was published by Forbes. The article touched on a new smart textile manufacturing method called “programmable weaving.” This new method will, supposedly, allow for easier, more free form manufacturing. But, what is it exactly and what does it mean for the future of e-textiles?

Sometimes, good design is done well-designed tools. We have compiled a list of our favorite tools for the month of July--and they are sustainable to boot!

Lately, we have been loving exploring the connection between e-textiles and other technologies. E-textiles have a wide range of functionality on their own. However, when paired with additional technologies, they are even more powerful. Haptics are an interesting add-on we would like to discuss.

Electronic textiles and artificial intelligence might be the most interesting crossover to hit the industry in recent years.

From a wearable air conditioner to microbial materials, these are the four concepts we have been obsessing over this month.
