Magnetic field-sensing electronic textiles are thought to be the first of their kind.

Researchers from Nottingham Trent University , Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf e.V. ( Germany ) and Free University of Bozen-Bolzano ( Italy ) created the technology.

The sensors are seamlessly integrated within the textile, allowing the position of the sensors to be indicated using dyeing or embroidering, acting as touchless controls.

Technology could be applied to areas such as temperature or safety controls for specialized clothing, gaming, or interactive fashion.
