ABSTRACT
AmbiKraf is a novel non-emissive analog fabric display that has rapid color changing capability. It is integrated into the soft fabric enabling novel animations and interactive scenarios in the normal clothes that we wear. The core novelty of this project lies within the actual implementation of a fabric embedded with Peltier junction semiconductor to form a robust and wearable fabric display. In addition, our key novelties extend to its fast, accurate and bidirectional control through in-fabric semiconductor based heating and cooling systems. This enables the capability of displaying animations and facilitating many interaction scenarios through everyday clothes.

AmbiKraf: a ubiquitous non-emissive color changing fabric display
MindTrek '11: Proceedings of the 15th International Academic MindTrek Conference: Envisioning Future Media EnvironmentsThis paper presents, AmbiKraf, a non-emissive fabric display that subtly animates patterns on common fabrics. We use thermochromic inks and peltier semiconductor elements to achieve this technology. With this technology we have produced numerous ...
AmbiKraf: A Nonemissive Fabric Display for Fast Changing Textile Animation
EUC '11: Proceedings of the 2011 IFIP 9th International Conference on Embedded and Ubiquitous ComputingWith this paper we present AmbiKraf, a none missive fast color changing fabric display. Our main motivation is to investigate the possibility of an actual fabric technology that can change the color in the form of a display. The core novelty of this ...
