Fig. 1 — Wearable ECG of smart garment. The ECG sensor patches (5) were placed inside the undershirt (“1. 2.” outside and inside faces for men or the bra strap “3.4.” for women). (6) Cross-sectional view of the textile electrode (hitoe^®). The cloth of polyester nanofiber (8) was coated by electroconductive polymer PEDOT-PSS (7, blue circles), which surface was directly placed on the skin (9). Back side of the electroconductive textile was fixed on the waterproof layer (12) and the cloth of the underwear (12).
