Abstract :
Study results on commercial electronic textiles (e-textiles) have shown that convenience aspect needs to be improved. In this paper, we propose an enhanced version of Drop-n-Play interface that provides an easy and hazard-free method to connect mobile devices to e-textiles. User tests have been conducted to demonstrate its performance.
