Fabric with Circuitry and Electrical Components

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250011981 titled 'Fabric with Circuitry and Electrical Components

Original Abstract Submitted

interlacing equipment may be used to form fabric such as woven fabric. the woven fabric may include warp strands and weft strands. in a leno weave, a warp strand may include one or more covering strands twisted around a core strand. the covering strands and/or the core strand may be conductive to form a conductive warp strand. an electrical component may be mounted to the conductive warp strand. a first electrical connection may couple the electrical component to the core strand and a second electrical connection may couple the electrical component to the covering strand. the two electrical connections may be isolated from one another. a warp strand may have a first region in which the core includes a conductive strand and a second region in which the conductive strand forms part of the covering or is located on an outer surface of the covering.
