Eleksen launched their Evaluation Kit targeted towards designers, academics, and journalists to get a first-hand experience with ElekTex technology.
The ElekTex evaluation kit is designed to explore the interface design for interactive soft goods products, including consumer and industrial apparel and accessories.
The Evaluation Kit enables users to experience and learn how to program smart fabric interfaces using button, scroll and gesture controls. It represents an ideal first step for those looking to develop commercial applications using ElekTex.
ElekTex is a unique electro-conductive fabric touch pad optimized for the creation of flexible, durable, and rugged fabric interfaces.
The Evaluation Kit consists of a standard ElekTex sensor and its associated control electronics module which connects to a Windows PC via a USB port. Also included in the kit are three fabric overlays which together with the appropriate software drivers provide application examples of the ElekTex sensor used as a Keyboard, Drawing Pad and Multimedia Controls.
The Evaluation Kit can be ordered directly from Eleksen’s new online shop for 500.- US$. A discount of 50% is offered to academic and non-profit organizations or professionals.
