Abstract
A new generation of industrial materials may change how we think about textiles. Many components of airplanes, including the wings, are already made using carbon fiber composites—a type of technical textile—and the ability of a Formula One racing car to crumple upon impact rather than crushing its driver is due to the properties of these materials. This program examines the construction of carbon fiber composites and explores their current and potential applications. The video also looks at electroluminescent technology that may make it possible to print lamps directly onto fabrics and at smart textiles, able to detect touch, heat, odor, and sound.
