Abstract

Sleep is essential for all human beings including infants. Infant sleep environment should provide adequate support to the sleeping infants and mitigate the risks associated with the infant's growth and wellbeing. Infant sleep environments comprising of Textronic e-skins or bioadaptive second skins with sensing and actuating capabilities can alleviate the risks of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) and Atopic dermatitis in infants during sleep to a great extent. This paper discusses the sensing mechanisms of tactile e-skins and the advantages of using textile substrates in tactile e-skins. Additionally, the need for incorporating tactile e-skins in infant sleep environments and the functionalization of textiles as tactile e-skins is highlighted. Furthermore, the paper briefly explains the design, and transduction principles of modified textile e-skins.
