Through the smart vest, the heartbeat frequency of the wearer can be measured. Modern textile technology makes the science fiction plot come true. The modern textile technology international forum held in Wuhan Textile University from 7 to 8 shows people the magic of future textiles.

Wang Xun, director of fiber and materials innovation research center of Deakin University in Australia, and Xu Weilin, vice president of Wuhan Textile University, won the first prize winner of national science and technology progress. Textile experts from more than 10 countries shared the latest research findings.

Modern textile technology absorbs the latest scientific and technological achievements in the fields of materials, electronics, information, electrical and mechanical, new materials, biological life and other disciplines. Products are widely used in aerospace, agriculture, industry, construction, water conservancy, transportation, medical and health fields.

Electronic products that can be worn can be applied from pure medicine to games; nanofibers can be used as wound dressing or even artificial blood vessels; nano particles can be transformed into fiber structures by electrospinning. Bhatt, director of the nonwoven materials research laboratory at University of Tennessee, Keith Collishaw, Dean of the school of clothing and textiles, Royal Institute of technology in Melbourne, Australia, Hirai Lihiro, Dean of textile science and technology, Shinshu University, Professor Tao Xiaoming, first professor of Textile Science in Hong Kong Polytech University, and so on, made nearly 20 world-renowned experts, and made prospects for functional textiles, textile machinery and electrical technology, fiber technology and new materials science.
