E-Knitted Textile with Polymer Optical Fibers for Friction and Pressure Monitoring in Socks

The objective of this paper is to study the ability of polymer optical fiber (POF) to be inserted in a knitted fabric and to measure both pressure and friction when walking. Firstly, POF, marketed and in development, have been compared in terms of the required mechanical properties for the insertion...
