Footfalls and Heartbeats (UK)
Footfalls and Heartbeats has developed a revolutionary process for manufacturing smart fabric which uses nano-scale interactions within the textile to make the fabric itself able to measure specific parameters of interest, avoiding the need for wires or miniature electronics.

Profile
Footfalls and Heartbeats has developed a revolutionary process for manufacturing smart fabric which uses nano-scale interactions within the textile to make the fabric itself able to measure specific parameters of interest, avoiding the need for wires or miniature electronics.
Integrating the technology into clothing but without the need for a separate “accessory” seems to be the next logical step for the increasing Wearable Technologies market and Smart Textiles market.
The company originated in New Zealand but has since transferred all operations to the UK and has
‘spun in’ to the University through collaborative activities related to synergistic optical sensor technology from the University.

It's fantastic to see the @guardian publishing an article about the great work that the @SHU_AWRC is doing including what the #Wellbeing #Accelerator with @footfalls_uk, @mynurva and Selfit Medical. https://twitter.com/SHU_AWRC/status/1278000707187154947
Great article on the @guardian website today about the importance of activity, physical health and the role of @SHU_AWRC! Nice to see Footfalls get a mention too 😎😀 Check it out here:

At #TF2040 @ICTechForesight, Dr Torrisi discussed the incorporation of printed graphenes on textiles and eventually interweaving the sensors into the base fabric. Sounds very similar to the work from our friends at @footfalls_uk!
Our clever team have been busy developing the future of movement :D

We recently spotted the team at @ootwnotts wearing BioCity based @footfalls_uk masks (who commented that they were super comfy!) For each twin pack sold they donate one mask to a key worker as part of their #MasksForTheMasses campaign 👏 #HometotheCurious
