Abstract

There is provided a flexible, lightweight high-performance electronic fabric interface (30) that can be integral with a wearable garment (60) and can cooperate with any of a variety of different wearable electronics (65) and the like without compromising the comfort and/or durability of the garment (60). The fabric interface is formed from a flexible fiber construction of one or more conductive fibers (10) and one or more non-conductive fibers (20), the non-conductive fibers including one or more fibers having elastomeric properties.
