Abstract
Disclosed is a method for forming a sensory textile. The method includes: providing a conductive polymer, a dopant and a solvent; mixing the conductive polymer, dopant and solvent to form a mixture having a predetermined ratio of the conductive polymer and the dopant, and a predetermined concentration of the conductive polymer; contacting a fabric with the mixture to coat the fabric with the conductive polymer and dopant; and drying the coated fabric. Also disclosed is a sensory textile device that includes such a sensory textile, a conductive backing layer and a spacer layer disposed between the sensory textile and conductive backing layer.
