  • Abstract
    This article describes the methods used to integrate a Bluetooth based ECG system into a T-Shirt. Some of the components are integrated into the garment, while the flexible electronic system is removable so that the garment can be washed. Technologies that need to be improved for manufacturing smart clothes were identified.
