Abstract
A textile () having a multi-layer warp which includes an upper warp layer () comprising an upper array of conductive warp yarns (---), a lower warp layer () comprising a lower array of conductive warp yarns (---), and an intermediate warp layer () arranged between the upper () and lower () warp layers. The textile further includes a weft in which a first set of conductive weft yarns (--) cross the upper array of conductive warp yarns (---), such that electrical contact is achieved there between, and a second set of conductive weft yarns (--) cross the lower array of conductive warp yarns (---), such that electrical contact is achieved there between. The second set of conductive weft yarns (--) form loops () around non-conductive warp yarns in the upper () and intermediate () warp layers, each of the loops () providing a first upper layer connection point (-) for enabling connection of an electronic device (-) between the first upper layer connection point (-) and a second upper layer connection point ().
