We propose a method for changing the functionality of conductive fabric by using different weaves on the same materials. The pressurization location sensors in our work can alter the electrical properties of a given fabric—made entirely of the same material, in both the warp and weft directions—by changing the weaving technique in certain locations of the fabric.
