Abstract
Active fabrics typically include a plurality of fibers. At least one of the fibers exhibits a change in length or width upon exposure to an external stimulus, such as heat, moisture, or light. The active woven materials can exhibit local transformation, such as creating areas that are tighter or more open, or global transformation, such as changing from flat to curled. The effect is a precise and repeatable change in shape upon exposure to an external stimulus. Embodiments can be employed, for example, in sportswear, compression garments, furniture, and interior products.
