We propose to further integrate parts of sensors into the very own materials of the objects. Thus, in this work we explore integrating smart garments into furniture using a couch as our use-case. Equipped with textile capacitive sensing electrodes, we show that our prototype outperforms existing systems achieving an F-measure of 94.1%. Furthermore, we discuss implications and limitation of the integration process.encapacitive sensorssmart homeposture recognitionsmart textilesLead Topic: Individual HealthResearch Line: Human computer interaction (HCI)E-textile couch: Towards smart garments integrated furnitureconference paper
