Textiles are so much more than clothing and soft furnishings; they impact almost every aspect of our lives, and their potential is only as limited as our imaginations...
Are textiles the ideal industry to be focusing on smart materials, such as metamaterials? What are the challenges with environmental and resource issues? How could we bring together materials development, manufacturing and design product companies around a shared vision?
In this second episode, Duncan Foster Fitzsimons and Anne Toomey try to answer these questions and discuss design, manufacturing, and applications of smart textile materials (including metamaterials).
