Smart Textiles Set - FSD™/ELITEX® XT

The unique FSD™ sequins (Functional Sequin Device) revolutionize textile design by seamlessly integrating electronic components into various fabrics. With their high-quality LEDs in the 0805 design, these functional sequins provide an impressive lighting experience. Due to their handy design, the FSD™ sequins can be freely placed on any textile and at the same time provide the electrical connection by combining them with an electrically conductive yarn. The electrically conductive yarn from Shieldex and the FSD™ sequins can be used to create unique, luminous textiles.

The use of prefabricated LEDs in the sequins saves users the laborious task of soldering the LEDs onto the textiles. In addition, the simple connection of the luminous sequins with the electrically conductive yarn means that no inflexible and hard wires have to be inserted into the fabric as conductors. By embroidering the luminous sequins, the textile remains soft and flexible, which means that it remains comfortable to wear. The application possibilities of the electrically conductive yarn in combination with the FSD™ sequins are particularly versatile. Experience textile design in a completely new dimension.

The FSD™ sequins in combination with Shieldex's electrically conductive yarn are perfect for integrating electronic circuits into textiles. This opens up a wide range of possible applications:

• Luminous textiles that can be used in high-visibility clothing or in the fashion industry
• Smart clothing with LEDs that are used in sports or wellness areas and enable various functions such as lighting, sensors or even communication
• Ambient lighting for automotive interiors or upholstery

With the "Textile Glow" experiment set, users can test the application of the electrically conductive yarn in combination with FSD™ sequins themselves. Equipped with enough material to embroider 3 LEDs onto a textile, the set is ideal for research and development departments as well as for DIY enthusiasts.
