Definition
The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
The MIT single-fibre computer embeds hundreds of microscale digital chips, connected by thin conductive wires, directly inside a polymer fiber that can be spun, washed, and woven like ordinary thread. Once integrated into a garment, the fiber carries out sensing, memory storage, and simple on-body neural-network computation, turning the textile itself into a distributed, wearable computing substrate.
