Few activities in life are more rewarding than self-expression. From
choosing the clothes we wear to the way we decorate our homes, each
of us has an opportunity to create something intensely personal and
very special. Textiles have always played an important part in this
creativity, providing us with a rich tapestry of color, texture,
shape and form. Thanks to on-going work at Philips Research,
animated color illumination is a new creative dimension that
textiles will now be able to deliver. Philips Research’s new
light-emitting ‘Lumalive’ fabrics will also have important
applications in healthcare and personal safety.
