Danish smart textiles consultancy Ohmatex ApS, has published its latest White Paper – Market Opportunities for Smart Textiles 2014 - just in time for The Wearable Technology Show which takes place in London today and tomorrow. The eleven page document, which can be downloaded at the foot of this article, outlines the position of smart textile wearable devices within the wider Wearable Technology industry.
“As the media have been declaring 2104 the Year of Wearable technology, we thought it was timely to release our updated white paper this year,” Rachael Sterrett, Marketing Coordinator at Ohmatex told Innovation in Textiles.
“We released previous white papers on the smart textile industry in 2008 and 2011 and we hope that this white paper will also prove to be a positive and informative resource for the industry,” Rachael added.
Market Opportunities for Smart Textiles 2014, a white paper on smart textile garments and devices, is a market overview of smart textile wearable technologies written by Christian Dalsgaard and Rachael Sterrett. Dalsgaard is Director and Founder of Ohmatex ApS and Sterrett is marketing coordinator with responsibility for marketing activities and business development.
“It is an interesting time in smart textiles development,” the paper begins. ”As the industry matures and develops there is an increasing drive to turn research results into commercial opportunities. The surge in wearable technology is acting as a spur to the smart textile industry and smart garments are being perceived as a niche market within the fast growing wearable technology industry.”
The writers point to the fact that the Smart Fabrics Conference 2014 being re-named Smart Fabrics and Wearable Technology, and that Intel has launched a ‘Wearable’ challenge and ‘wearable tech’ has never been more talked about in the media.
This third Ohmatex White Paper on smart textile garments and devices focuses on the intersection between smart textile technology and ‘wearable tech’ – wearable technology on a textile platform.
“For those who have been working in the industry for almost 10 years we want to highlight what is new and where development is happening. For those in traditional textiles or wearable textiles who wish to begin to exploit the potential of smart textile garments and devices we aim to observe trends, track changes and highlight successes and opportunities in the field of smart textile technology,” Ohmatex says.
The paper includes the following sections: Introduction, Market overview, Smart textile networks and conferences, Segmentation and Stakeholders, Market drivers.
