The spacer layers (18, 20) provide a stable and uniform spacing between the shield or screen conductors (22, 24) and the conductive fabric core (12).

A fabric comprising micro-magnets, micro-coils of conductive material within an electric-insulating coating and an array of switches for selectively switching micro-coils on and off, such that relative movement of the micro-coils with respect to a local magnet field generates signals that are transmittable to a receiver, and signals received can switch coils on to detect relative movement of the coil with respect to nearby magnets to create tension and compression within the fabric.

A wire mesh layer, including warp wires and weft wires, wherein the warp wires and the weft wires form woven meshes and open up a woven surface. A connecting member is provided, which includes a thermoplastic material. The multilayered product is provided having such a wire mesh layer and a further layer, wherein the wire mesh layer and the further layer are connected by the thermally deformed connecting member. In a method of manufacturing such a multilayered product, the wire mesh layer and the further layer are placed on top of one another in a predetermined orientation. Due to the thermal deformation of the thermoplastic material of the connecting member, the wire mesh layer and the further layer will be interconnected.

A conductive textile according to the invention includes a fabric, a wire conductor and a metal sheet. The wire conductor is integrated with the fabric, and has a connection end. The metal sheet has a main body and a bent portion. The bent portion extends from the main body and is bent downward. The leading edge of the bent portion is flat or jagged. The metal sheet is pressed against an upper surface of the fabric and placed on the connection end. The main body is welded together with the connection end of the wire conductor by a welding process. The main body serves as a bonding pad.

Weaving equipment may include warp strand positioning equipment that positions warp strands and weft strand positioning equipment that inserts weft strands among the warp strands to form fabric. The fabric may include insulating strands and conductive strands. Conductive strands may run orthogonal to each other and may cross at open circuit and short circuit intersections. The fabric may be formed using pairs of interwoven warp and weft strands. Conductive warp and weft strands may be interposed within the pairs of strands. The fabric may be a single layer fabric or may contain two or more layers. Stacked warp strands may be formed between pairs of adjacent insulating warp strands. The stacked warp strands may include insulating and conductive strands. Touch sensors and other components may include conductive structures that are formed from the conductive strands in the fabric.

A conductive fabric includes a fabric with one or more electrically conductive wire braids woven into the fabric. The one or more wire braids are woven into the fabric such that one or more portions of each wire braid are exposed at one or more surfaces of the fabric, the exposed portions of the wire braid forming connection pads. Each connection pad provides an electrical connection point for attachment to a complementary electrical connection point on an electronic component, such as a bond pad, solder bump, or connection lead. A single wire braid can be used to electrically interconnect multiple electronic components. Multiple wire braids can be arranged, with appropriate spacing and alignment of exposed portions, to electrically interconnect multiple electronic components with multiple electrical interconnects between one or more electronic components. Each electrically conductive wire braid includes a plurality of individual electrically conductive wires braided together.
