SYSTEX aims at collecting technological and non technological information on relevant projects at various levels and classifi es them in a transparent knowledge based information platform, structuring the relevant data of the entire e-textiles value chain according to the requirements of the interacting partners. The analysis of the available and ongoing research activities in e-textiles and wearable micro systems and the respective results will be edited in the framework of an interactive website and thus enhance cross-sectoral synergies and speed up the exchange of project results. Access to this new data pool shall be a true added value for every party involved in intelligent textile systems and off ers a clear competitive advantage. The objective of SYSTEX is to identify the hurdles in the interdisciplinary knowledge transfer and to initiate actions to overcome them.
