1.  The Invention

 

Title:   Textronic systems to muscle stimulation
The problem the inventor(s) wanted to solve
Textronic current stimulation systems can be used in muscles stimulation or wounds treatment. It can be also used as a textronic “guardian”, a system that controls the driver during long travel.

Description.The current flow through the electrode improves blood circulation and thus hastens the wound healing process. Small amount of current flowing from the generator activates the driver and may prevent a road accident. The tiredness and the moment of falling asleep can be monitored by pulse sensor. Miniature optoelectronic pulse senor is located on f the fingers. When the driver falls asleep the signal from the pulse sensor activates the current stimulation through textile gold electrodes. 

Presentation. Textronic clothing system, (details on poster)

Fields of application (1) A textronic “guardian”, a system that controls the driver and stimulates him. (2) Current stimulation of blood circulation - therapy.
Advantages The essence of the Textronic System for muscle stimulation is the construction of the electrodes. Textile electrodes are made from electroconductive gold or silver yarns. They can be knitted or woven, they can also take the form of embroidery. The elasticity of the textile electrodes assure of good contact between the electrodes and the skin.
