[...]It is worth to point out that the monograph "Innovations in Clothing Technology
and Measurement Techniques" covers almost all the stages of clothing and
footwear production starting from the scanning the human body, through the
innovative mass customization technology of clothing production, automatic
sewing process, clothing textronics solutions, measurement techniques in the
clothing industry, finishing on the problems dealt with clothing appearance,
fashion and design. It should be mentioned that the clothing industry is very
innovative, still developing and a promising sector in the European economy.
Also in our country the clothing industry gathers many small and medium
enterprises, which have good development perspectives for the future.
The monograph consists of four chapters titled as follows:
1. Clothing and Footwear- Construction and Computer Techniques,
2. Smart textiles and Wearable Electronics,
3. Innovations in Measurement Techniques,
4. Fashion and Clothing Design.
The chapter titled Clothing and Footwear - Construction and Computer
Techniques is the longest one due to the fact that all the problems dealing with
the preparation of technological clothing production are very actual now,
especially in the European countries. Scanning technology opens the new
possibilities for creating the clothing patterns. Using the scanning technique and
appropriate software we are able to adjust the clothing to fit better to the human
being silhouette.
The topics concerned so called "smart textiles" are also very modern now. It is
caused by the need of changing the clothing functionality. In addition to cover
the human body the clothing can fulfill the other functions like heating, warning
the person about any dangerous situations, for example, to warn the fire-fighter,
who is involved in the action, that he should leave the dangerous territory. The
textronics applied in the clothing can also fulfill the functions important for the
health of the user, for example, it can measure the human physiological
parameters. The textronics can be also used in the PPE, can enable the specially
important data transmission. Shortly speaking this is the content of the next
chapter - Smart Textiles and Wearable Electronics.
In the chapter Innovations in Measurement Techniques there are described
methods used in the clothing physiological comfort measurement (microclimate
parameters and water vapor permeability), methods for testing the relaxation
properties in the multilayer textile materials, color change of textile materials by
a new device DigiEye as well as methods of assessment of special properties
important from the safety point of view like a flammability.
The chapter Fashion and Clothing Design is devoted for the clothing art
designing also with the use of new tools like CAD. The Authors are trying to
explore the impact of using the Virtual Reality Technology in fashion
communication advertising as a medium, which can be used in fashion photo
sessions, fashion shows and fashion shops to improve the acceptance of
information on the market. Fashion advertising is a main branch, which focuses
on a promotion of the fashion industry.
This monographic edition is prepared by many Authors from different countries
like: Germany, Slovenia, Ukraine, Russia, Portugal, Lithuania, Belgium,
Slovakia, Egypt and Poland. Some of the presentations are prepared in the
international cooperation. I would like to thank all the Authors for an effort
they undertook to contribute this monograph. Dear Friends, thanks a lot for your
very interesting contributions, which make the monograph very consistent
and valuable.
