Behaving Knit: Exploring the Integrative Solution for Shape-changing Wearables by Knitting Technologies
Lingxiao Luo, EU funded Phd prepared at Ensadlab, Ecole des Arts Déco, PSL University in the framework of the SOFTWEAR doctoral network (on-going). Supervision: Aurélie Mosse, Edwin Jager, Benoît Roman .
This research delves into the transformative potential of « Behaving Knit » technology, which creates interactive soft interfaces that change shape in response to external stimuli, resulting in dynamic, lifelike movements that enhance user interaction and emotional engagement. The central research question revolves around effectively integrating soft actuators into knit structures while considering aesthetics, interactivity, and sustainability.
