Abstract : Smart clothing or “intelligent textile” represents the new class of wearable textile design era 2.0 with interactive technologies, intended to be attractive, comfortable and ‘fit for purpose’ for the identified user. Smart clothing offers a unique opportunity to monitor soldier’s performance in terms of training, injuries, and psychological status monitoring in an ecological and non-intrusive approach. A good design of smart clothing for soldiers is a crucial element for safety, security, and ergonomic factors. These must be addressed together with the traditional wearability and comfort ones. Anthropometric and gender considerations, as well as textile requirements are to be included into the design core. Physiological, ergonomical and biomechanical evaluation of soldier’s performance were considered permitted us to define the final functional cloth. A general research approach is discussed in Chapter 1 to describe and identify different research methodologies and their application, as well as the relation of this work to the research domain of smart textile systems, are described and identified. Chapter 2, describes the effect of load on body posture and load on human performance describes (civil and military). This part of research is based on a systematic literature review based on search engine databases (Web of science and PubMed) focused on identify the impact of load carriage on the mobility of military personnel and civils. Chapter 3 focuses on the use of smart clothing (civil and military). In Chapter 4, all the co-design workflow for designing our smart clothing starting from an anthropometric approach collected on total of 1615 male Belgian soldiers aged between 18 and 35 years were investigated. In that process, we can distinguish two main macro areas to establish the product’s requirements: the technological issues and the design issues. Both areas are essential for the product design. While the first is related to biosignal sensor technologies, the second includes physical and design factors such as anthropometry and gender issues, body positions, adherence, elasticity and wearability of the garments. The smart t-shirt is capable of monitoring in real time the heart rate (ECG) and the 3D body accelerations of the trunk. Bluetooth communication allows the real-time communication with a custom-made APP suited for the purpose. The information can be either stored or immediately transferred to a nearby computer for the successive analysis. In Chapter 5, new algorithms for monitoring performance are presented. These algorithms are addressed to measuring posturographical and physiological parameters of the soldier. The last Chapter presents the conclusions and future developments.
