Abstract
By innovatively coupling human body and functional fibers, recent inspiring research achieves radiation energy capture, signal transmission and digital visualization while retains flexibilities, softness and durability of textiles and their large-scale fabrications. The single coupled human-fiber system provides absolutely new mechanism and fibrous method to design and produce intelligent textiles and promises to offer more potential applications in home and daily lives.
