Abstract

A method for knitting a garment having a tubular form, including knitting at least one conductive textile electrode on a machine having N participating feeders and M needles. The method includes the steps of continuously knitting the tubular form with one or more flexible non-conductive yarns, and knitting the electrode integrally within the tubular form, using a conductive yarn, in addition to the non-conductive yarns. The conductive yarn is knitted in a float-loop form by knitting a stitch and skipping over y needles, as follows: repeatably knitting a line segment Lk, using feeder Fi and starting at needle D1 and knitting line segment Lk+1, using the next feeder and start stitching the first float-loop at needle D1+s where 0<s<y. The tubular form has a preconfigured 10 knitting density, wherein the electrode has a knitting density that is higher than the preconfigured knitting density of the tubular form.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit under 35 USC 119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application 61 / 729,548, filed November 24, 2012, and U.S. Provisional Application 61 / 763,961, filed February 13, 2013, the disclosures of which are incorporated by reference here. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to real-time health monitoring systems, and more particularly, the present invention relates to knitted electrodes embedded into knitted garments in preconfigured locations, wherein the electrodes are integrated with the garment. The electrodes are interconnected with a processor to form a health monitoring system. [0004] The present invention provides novel dry textile contact electrodes for measuring biological physiological parameters such as ECG signals and / or other important signals such as (EEG), electroencephalogram (EOG), electrooculogram and other medical measurements , wherein the electrodes are placed...
