Abstract: A system of fabric-based devices designed as transistors with tri-state behavior that can measure any geometries on 2D and 3D surfaces. The devices are constructed from layers of conductive materials and flexible sheets that allow signals to selectively cross between layers. Multiple layers of conductive signals can be achieved by controlling the tension of the top and bottom thread, and interlayering conductive, semiconductive, insulating, and semi-porous materials around a sensing layer. The layers can be further modified to include folds and cuts that allow for 2D and 3D bending, stretching, twisting, and curves. Large sheets of devices can be organized into grid-like matrixes, with signal wires connected in a multiplexed fashion to minimize the amount of threads to simplify construction and device communication to a central processing unit.
