Textile Thermal Matrix: 10x10 Flexible Temperature Sensing

Traditional temperature sensors are rigid, bulky, and restricted to flat surfaces. The Knitronix Textile Thermal Matrix (10x10) breaks these limitations by integrating a 100-node thermal sensing network directly into lightweight, breathable textile layers. Designed for complex, non-planar, and body-conforming surfaces, our matrix delivers real-time spatial heat mapping with exceptional accuracy.

Key Product Features:

• 100 Sensing Nodes (10x10 grid): Continuous spatial temperature mapping via crossed conductive fabric layers and integrated SMD elements.
• Ultra-Flexible & Lightweight: Weighing just ~50 g with a minimum bending radius of 15 mm, it seamlessly conforms to dynamic surfaces.
• High Precision & Fast Scanning: Captures full 100-point scans every 2 seconds with an accuracy of 0.2°C.
• Skin-Safe & Durable: Designed for direct skin contact with optional washability and coating options.
• Scalable Dimensions: Available in a compact 14 x 14 cm standard size, scalable up to larger dimensions.

Key Applications:

• Automotive & Interior Comfort: Enhance occupant well-being with real-time thermal monitoring for smart vehicle seats, climate control systems, and luxury interiors.
• Medical & Healthcare Devices: Monitor patient body temperature distribution continuously in wearable medical devices, rehabilitation garments, and pressure-injury prevention beds.
• Smart Furniture & Mattresses: Map thermal comfort and breathability dynamically in ergonomic seating, office chairs, and smart bedding systems.
• Sports & Performance Monitoring: Analyze thermal dynamics during physical activity to optimize athletic apparel design, performance monitoring, and recovery gear.
• Industrial Surface Monitoring: Deploy conformable, flexible thermal grids across non-planar industrial machinery, curved piping, and complex equipment.
