A mechanism has been developed to embroider through flexible electronic modules using conductive yarn, thus creating an interconnection with other modules like sensors, batteries, textile keyboards, etc. Mold encapsulation has been found to improve the electrical contact and support the reliability of the whole system.enwearable electronicelectronic in textileintegrationpackaginginterconnectionembroideryencapsulationsmart textileintelligent textileembroidered interconnectionconductive threadwashabilityflexible substratemicrointegrationreliabilitydesign rules621Embroidering electrical interconnects with conductive yarn for the integration of flexible electronic modules into fabricconference paper
