Interactive Textiles

Interactive Flooring 

Interactive textiles blows my mind, this Interactive flooring is LED light put together with motion tracking .  The colours, patterns and tracking response just absolutely amazes me


The Elevator

The Elevator by Samira Boon is a large mechanical contraption that forces people into each others comfort zone, therefore users tend to stand against the walls to keep their distance.

Samari uses smart textiles by covering the elevator walls with a smart textiles. the heat reactive yarn allows threads to change colour when warm.

 I find smart textiles fascinating, i especially love the idea of a piece being interactive.
