N2 - In this paper, we present a new approach for an automated test tool to characterize the behaviour of Smart Textiles. Smart Textiles are a combination of textile fabrics and conductive elements which change their electrical properties as a result of applied pressure, tension or temperature. The used materials as well as the manufacturing method result in a complex response caused by thread rearrangements, abrasions or tensions in the fabric and is reflected in overshooting and undershooting, drifts and offsets during the measurements. In order to test and characterize the textiles, we have developed an automated test environment that can generate mechanical stress as well as temperature changes and drive the textile with dedicated waveforms that are then measured and analysed. The response is used to iteratively refine the models of the textiles and provide more reliable measurement results under various mechanical and thermal loads.
