Welcome to the ConText website

The ConText project is an Specific Targeted REsearch Project (STREP), funded by the IST program of the European Commission's 6th Framework. ConText is started on January 1st, 2006, and will run for 30 months.

The objective of the project is to create a system where different types of sensors are incorporated into textiles to be used in continuous monitoring of individuals. Contact less sensors will be developed for the purpose of measuring electromyography and electrocardiography signals. The sensors will be integrated into textile to realise a prototype of a wearable vest. The combination of textile integration and signal processing of the myographic signals will push the development of personalised health applications.
