Function
Fabric with a LED decal incorporated to enhace appearance of a black T-shirt Matériel avec logo en papier en décalcomanie LED incorporé pour améliorer l'apparence du chandail noir.
Technical
The work on electroluminescence dates back to the early 1900s, but was not practically applied until 1962, when Nick Holonyak from GE developed the first visible spectrum light emitting diode (LED). For the first decade LEDs only emmited red light. The first LEDSs were used in laboratory and test equipment. As technology matured the light output increased to yellow and orange; then in 1994 to high brightness blue; and finally ca. 1996 to high power white, which allowed LEDs to be used for illumination. Flexible LEDs were only developed in the 1990s at MIT. LUME, a lightweight, LED-embedded textile was developed between 2003 and 2004. This t-shirt is an early and inexpensive, commercial example of e-textiles. It features simple LED decal connected to a somewhat cumbersome ''brain'', powered by 4 AAA batteries. The LEDs in the deal respond to sound. The louder the sound, the more LEDs light up. Le travail sur l'électroluminescence se retrace jusqu'au début des années 1900 mais a pu seulement être appliqué de façon pratique en 1962 lorsque Nick Holonyak développe le premier spectre visible LED. Pour la première décennie, les LED émettait seulement une lumière rouge et était utilisé dans des laboratoires et l'équipement de test. Avec la croissance de la technologie, la production de lumière augmente à jaune et orange. Ensuite, en 1994 la production augmente à un bleu en haute luminosité et finalement en 1996 à un blanc très puissant ce qui permet au LED d'être utilisé pour l'illumination. Les premiers développements en ce qui concerne les "e-textiles" ont débuté dans les années 1990 avec l'aide de recherche à MIT. LUME, un textile intégré avec LED a été développé entre 2003 et 2004. Ce chandail est un exemple précoce et peu coûteux des " e-textiles ". Le chandail comporte un logo en papier en décalcomanie LED connecté au chandail qui est alimenté par quatre piles AAA. Les LED du logo répondent aux sons et s'allument lorsque le son augmente.
