Design Summary and Analysis Final
In the article, "Force-Sensing Gloves could Control an iPhone By Detecting Gestures and How Objects Are Gripped," Owen (2019) has stated that Apple aims to enable people to interact with devices using any form of clothing made using conductive strands in the fabric, such as gloves, which provide force-sensing capabilities. The article describes how a glove could be enabled to detect the amount of pressure applied to a surface, which will deliver different commands. The material used for the clothing would incorporate conductive strands, interwoven with normal threads in the fabric, which allows the sending of electrical signals from one section to another. The conductive strands connected to the force sensing circuitry signals are sent to a wireless element to send commands or other information to a main device. The article also states that Apple thought of adding these fabrics with flexible displays to create smart clothing. In this article, Owen introduced to ...
