Design and Characterization of Embroidered Electroacoustic Transducer

Abstract

This paper is focused on designing and characterization of embroidered electroacoustic transducer placed on the magnet. This type of transducer can be used as a feedback or notification element in an advanced smart textile system. Multiple transducer designs and threads were used in the experiment. Results from measuring of acoustic level have showed, that embroidered electroacoustic transducer can be used as a full-featured speaker for the feedback system. The results have showed the ability to play simple sounds and melodies through this electroacoustic transducer.
