By Willis Ke -- Inspired by bright global market prospects for smart textile products, the Taiwan Textile Research Institute has helped establish the Taiwan Smart Textiles Alliance, bringing together related manufacturers as well as government and academic research units to develop innovative products, set up industrial standards and explore markets. The textiles alliance is seeking to cash in on the great sales potential for smart textiles. The alliance is also aiming to build a sound ecosystem for the development of smart textiles in Taiwan. With the help of the Taiwan Textile Research Institute, six alliance members will showcase a variety of smart textile products at a special pavilion at the COMPUTEX 2017, which will run May 30-June 3 at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center and Taipei World Trade Center. The exhibits will include power-saving wireless physical sensing transmission modules, interactive textile fabrics and other smart textiles embedded with electronics components, from Ruentex, Everest Textile, AiQ/Tex-Ray Industrial, Sunstar Taiwan, Nine Million Tech and Maxtek Go-Go.
