Data Storage and Interaction using Magnetized Fabric
summary
Off-the-shelf conductive thread is magnetized and read by a smartphone magnetometer to store and sense data; a 5 mm embroidered strip uses 2 cm cells with 1 cm guard bands and encodes bits by pole polarity, readable by swiping. Tags survive washing, drying and ironing and decode reliably; pixel size resolves down to ~1.8 cm², supporting over 3 million images. Gesture patches on gloves register six gestures with 90.1% accuracy at about 1 cm read range using magnetized conductive thread.
