    Abstract: A real-time motion capture system and garment includes a wearable activity monitor that may be a pair of denim jeans. The wearable activity monitor includes multiple sensors such as accelerometers, gyrometers, magnetometers disposed within the seams of the garment. A microprocessor and wireless transmitter) communicate the motion data to an external device. The microprocessor and wireless transmitter may be included within one of the seams. An elastically stretchable ribbon or a flexible ribbon such as a kapton ribbon or a ribbon formed of textile, electrically couples the sensors and microprocessor and is also disposed inside the seams and the components within the seam are coated with a waterproof coating. The external device can store the data or display and analyze the data real-time, and may communicate the data to a further electronic device.

    Abstract: A method for sealing a seam in a fabric provides for joining at least one piece of a stretchable, one-ply woven fabric to another fabric such as another stretchable one-ply woven fabric, and for sealing the seam with a strip of another piece of fabric with an adhesive laminated thereon. The stretchable one-ply woven fabric includes elastic and inelastic fibers. A seam is produced in which the fabric fibers adhere to the seam and do not pull back from the seam. Also provided is a method for forming a hem and sealing the hem with a strip of another piece of fabric, to produce a hem that is resistant to fiber slippage. The method is advantageously used to form denim and other garments from woven fabrics that include at least 65% natural fibers along with various elastomeric fibers.

    Abstract: A method of identifying gesture event types on a textile touch pad sensor (10) with the steps of: memorizing raw touch data generated by the conductive grid (17) during a predefined interval of time in which a gesture event is performed on the pad sensor; estimating the type of a gesture event performed on the pad sensor by analyzing the raw touch data generated by the conductive grid; measuring the total time (eventLength) of the gesture event performed on the pad sensor; memorizing the longest time (longestX, longestY) during which a conductive yarn of the conductive grid has been touched during the gesture event; correcting the estimation of the gesture type, if the longest time during which a conductive yarn of the conductive grid has been touched is greater than a quantity that is a function of the total time of the gesture event.

    Abstract: The disclosure provides a compression garment (68) formed of a stretchable fabric (10) with a uniform, i.e. constant, elasticity but in which the compression garment provides different degrees of garment compression when worn by a wearer due to geometric cuts (6, 8) made to the fabric to form one or more fabric panels (2, 4) that extend the entire length of the circumferential portion (60) of the garment. The circumferential portion surrounds a wearer's body part (66) and includes degrees of compression that vary at different locations (12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26), along the axial direction (62). The geometric cuts produce non-linear edges (6A, 6B, 8A, 8B) and are made to provide different circumferential lengths (12F, 14F, 16F, 18F, 20F, 22F, 24F, 26F) of fabric that produce desired compression levels at various axial locations, and are calculated using formulas and algorithms that take into account various factors relating to the fabric and the garment being formed.
