Sensor-Integrated Clothing

Sensor-Integrated Clothing is clothing that has small sensors built into the fabric or seams, which can track things like heart rate, body temperature, or movement. In wearable tech, these sensors can connect to smart devices using wireless signals, sending real-time data to apps for health monitoring or sports training. Designers use soft, flexible materials so the sensors feel comfortable and do not change how the clothing fits. Some designs use special threads that can sense touch or pressure, making the clothing interactive. These smart clothes can help people track their fitness, improve their posture, or even help doctors watch over patients from far away.
