Future t

The creators of Project Jaquard as well as the others are still considering the issue of the textiles interaction with the environment; recycling is doubtlessly more complicated due to the combination of traditional and electronic textiles within one unit.

5 Changes in short term and long term perspective.

Changes in short term highly vary within the type of textile. If we consider Project Jaquard, it is in progress of implementing. If the contract with the Levi’s is successful, the rate of further implementing is of no question. As for the Thermochromic materials, their perspective is more decided upon, since they are highly applied and their use is to grow rapidly.

As for the changes in long term perspective, they are dependent on other projects and their success. It can be sad that long term implementation of Project Jaquard is more promising, since it gives more opportunity and has less possible rivals on the market. Thermochromic materials, on the other hand, do not introduce anything especially new to the market; therefore, there might be a decrease in its use.

6 Conclusion.

It can be concluded that practicality and ease of sensors use in clothes significantly save finances and time, but they are not the main advantages of the future textiles. Special sensors for textile are organically built into the very structure of the textile and do not cause discomfort during walking, which enables to simplify many of the everyday procedures and routines as well as open a new bright world for the disabled people. Thus, the main advantages of Sensory Textiles and Thermochromic Materials are that they open new opportunities to the world of fashion and world of textiles technologies, as it is described above.

The general disadvantage is a case of application due to the unknown reaction of the textile to the outer factors, such as constant wearing, washing and interacting with other subjects (dirt, microwaves of tools and applications). The creators of Project Jaquard (one of the most promising projects in the sphere) as well as the others are still considering the issue of the textiles interaction with the environment; recycling is doubtlessly more complicated due to the combination of traditional and electronic textiles within one unit.
