Abstract
In this paper we show a possible perspective for networks of distributed sensors based on organic field effect transistors assembled on a yarn. The electronic yarn will allow to obtain matrices of sensors assembled by textile technology and will ensure to obtain for wearable devices the necessary properties of drapability and conformity to the body.
