[ Technical Textiles - Therapy glove for apoplexia patients.]

New universal textile electrode systems were presented at Techtextil 2009 in Frankfurt by TITV Greiz (the Textile Research Institute of Thuringia-Vogtland). These flexible textile electrodes are permeable to air and can be used for electro-myostimulation, the rehabilitative care of apoplexia patients or for the contact-free recording of body signals such as ECG or EMG.
