Now textiles like u’ve never seen them before, in Futuris. It's the fashion show season, and in parallel Paris has been hosting the largest Textiles Show in the world : Premi�re Vision. 742 exhibitors from thirty countries presented their offerings for the Autumn Winter 2007 / 2008 season. And this year too, some special guests: so called "intelligent fabrics". 现在��������的服��������是你以前没有��������的。现在是时����展����季��������同时巴����举办了世界上最大����模的纺织品展����会��������级��������。来����30个国家的742个参展商展出了2007-2008秋冬季服����。今年����一个特别的客人是����智����服����。

Textiles, for example, that have built-in protection against staining. "If you imagine normal cloth being flat, withnano technologies(纳米技术) the cloth takes a form a little like mountains. The structure's invisible of course.

例如����纺织品����制����成一种杜绝着����的��������。����想一下����普����布料����常的平整����含有纳米技术����布料有一种类似山峰的结构。当然����结构是����眼看不到的。

And dirt can't stick to a material like that, it runs off. So here I'll put a bit of ketchup on and I'll take some water and there, you see, it's a white cloth and you can rinse off the dirt immediately." 污垢不��������着到����种材料上����它会流掉。例如����我把番����汁撒到上��������然后冲上水����你会看到����污垢����立即冲����了����布����是����么的洁白。

Stain resistant materials, bacteria resistant materials, mosquito resistant materials, materials that can absorb smell or reduce perspiration, materials that can measure your heartbeat or your breathing pattern… ����种材料抗污����抗����������������������������吸收气味����减少排汗��������种材料����可以测����你的心����和呼吸。

textiles that are totally impermeable, textiles that are ultra absorbant. cosmetic- textiles that moisten the skin or apply perfume; the world of intelligent textiles is expanding and a multitude of European research centres are part of it. 材料可以是完全不可渗��������材料也可以����级可以渗��������具有化妆功����的纺织品可以湿润皮��������也可以����用����水材料。智����纺织品的世界正在����步扩大����更多的欧洲研究机构参与其中。

Here at Centexbel in Belgium, not far from Liege, scientists are dreaming up the next generation of intelligent or functional textiles. Prototype maker Martine Degueldre's job is to transform these dreams into reality. 比利时的Centexbel纺织品研究中心��������离Liege市不����������������的科研人员正在构思下一代的智����或功����纺织品����模具师 Martine Degueldre 的工作就是����换����些梦想成为现实。


Here we have a pullover that's entirely knitted. The keyboard is supple. It enables the user to send a range of different commands. It was conceived for handicapped people: to allow them for example, with a given code, to open a garage door, to switch on the television.

��������有一件套杉是完全����织的��������盘是柔����的����它允����使用����发����一系列不同的命令����它主����为残疾人������������允����它们使用特定的密码去开启����库����或����换电������������。

We've also got undergarments that allow you to monitor different body functions: breathing, heartbeat and so on, using electrodes that are in direct contact with the body.
我们也开发了一种内����可以��������用电极接��������体����用来监测不同的����体特征����呼吸����心����等等。
We can also insert fibre optics into carpet. They're integrated in the production process, and to make the carpets luminous. They can be used for emergency exits, for example, if there's a power cut... or just to create pretty patterns within the carpet.

我们也可以把光纤维植入地毯����它们一����在生产����程中����植入����使地毯发光。它们可以����使用于紧急撤离����例如����当停电的时候。或在地毯����产生一种美丽的图案。


We've also used fibre optics in knitting. This creates the possibility of luminous knitwear. It can be used for outdoor safety clothing, or it can be stuck on walls and ceilings for decorative effects.

我们也把光纤维应用到����织方����。����就产生了发光����织����服的可����。它可以用在户外安全����服����或放到墙壁上或天����板上������������效果。

The most complex of these prototypes is probably the textile keyboard, which can also function as a simple calculator. Jean L�onard has spent two years working on it the key is the interaction of materials that do and don't conduct electricity: ����些类型中最复杂的��������于纺织品����盘����它或��������到����算器的作用。Jean L�onard��������了2年时����研究它。关����是材料的交互作用导电与否。

"In addition to the conventional materials, which are electrical insulators, we've used metallic fibres that do conduct electricity. The principle is that when you don't apply pressure, there's no contact between two conducting layers. And when you apply pressure, you create a contact between the two layers.
不同于常����材料��������去的����属纤维材料是导电的��������我们使用的材料是绝缘的。原则上当你不加压力的时候����2层之����就不会接����。当你施加压力的时候����在2层之����就产生了1种接����。

In addition to this, there's a small microelectric component which has been miniaturised as much as possible so that it disrupts the cloth as little as possible, because the goal is to preserve the characteristics of textiles - suppleness and comfort."

����此之外����������������有一个小的微电子元件����它����做的最小化����尽可����的不去破坏����服的结构。因为我们的目标就是保存����服固有的特性-柔����和����服。



Suppleness and comfort, those are the watchwords for functional and intelligent clothing. Yvette Rogister is in charge of the microbiology lab at the center. She unlocks the secrets of textiles using this giant microscope. Her research helps build an understanding of how fibres react to the presence of certain nano particles -for example cosmetic nano particles that release perfumes into clothes.
柔����和����服是功����和智��������服的目标。Yvette Rogister��������研究中心的微生物实����室。借用于����种巨大的显微��������他揭开了纺织品的秘密。他的研究有助于理����纤维与纳米相互作用。例如����化����纳米粒子����够向����服��������放����味。

These are microcapsules which contain a perfume that's integrated within the fibres that make up the cloth. What we've been looking at here is how uniformally the microcapsules are spread across the cloth, and also we wanted to have an idea of their dimensions.

����些包含����水的微����囊����植入了用来做����服的纤维中����我们��������的就是如何在����服����均����的排列����些微����囊����我们想弄清最理想的他们的尺寸。

And then after the material's been used, we wanted to see how the microcapsules react -they're supposed to explode and release their perfume. And in fact what we've seen here is that there are indeed microcapsules that have exploded and thus released their perfume. ����种材料����应用以后����我们想理��������些微����囊如何作用。它们应����是爆破并且����放他们的����味。并且事实上也果然如此。

At the Institute Francais du Textil et Habillement, outside Lyon intelligent textiles are tested for resistance against heat, flames tearing, liquids Engineers work on several europe wide projets and also invent their own textiles for the future.

在Francais du Textil et Habillement研究��������智����服��������实����了����热��������火��������撕扯��������液体的实����。工程师们����力于多方����的研究����也发明了他们����己的未来纺织品。


Once the concept has been established, the cloth is modeled to a chosen design and added to a virtual collection of tomorrow's fashion.

概念一旦����接受����布料就������������成可供����择的式样����同时增加的新式样的实����性的收����。

For dreams to become a reality, you need a plasma machine like this. Here, in a vacuum, textiles are put in contact with different gases -oxygen, nitrogen, fluoride, or ammonia.
为了梦想成为现实����你��������一台����样的等离子机。在真空状态下����纺织品����放����去接����不同的气体。氧气����氮气����氟化物����氨气。


In this way researcher Jaques Maguin changes the textile properties. Fluorides for example make normally absorbant cotton impermeable, while nitrogen makes normally resistant materials absorbant.

用����种方法����研究员Jaques Maguin改变了纺织品的特性。氟化物可以使正常吸收的棉����变的不可渗��������氮气可以抵制材料吸收。

"Nitrogen will separate off and try to impregnate itself in the textile. So using nitrogen gas you can make a kind of water plasma which will attach itself to the surface. And when you put water next to this there's a very strong affinity, and that makes a material that absorbs very easily, which is good for clearning materials, or for absorbing sweat, or for sticky materials or for printable materials.

氮气可以单独的灌����到纺织品中����所以用氮气你����制����一种水离子区����并且依����于材料��������。所以����当你把水撒到上��������会有一种����常强力的亲和力。使材料具有很强的吸收力����有利于清洁材料����或吸汗。或制成粘性材料或印刷材料。

On the other hand, fluoride gas makes cotton water resistant, so when it rains it’s impermeable but still comfortable.

另一方��������氟化物气体可以使棉��������水����当下����的时候����纺织品会变的不可渗����但同时很����服。


In these workshops a European programme to make threads of the future is being researched. Christophe Angelloz is developing polypropylene thread that resists high temperatures. The polypropylene is mixed with chemical micro particles whose composition is a commercial secret. The mixture is pummelled, melted, stretched and woven into yarn.
在����些工厂����制作未来丝线的程序正在研制当中。Christophe Angelloz开发了一种����丙稀丝线可以抵制����温。����丙稀与某种成分为商业秘密的微离子相混合��������种混合体����压实��������化����伸展然后纺织成纱线。

"It's all polypropylene. But by changing the manufacturing conditions -like the extrusion temperature, the weaving speed, the stretching tension, you can optimize the thread production."

����些����是����丙稀����但是��������改变制����工��������例如排出的温度����纺织����度����拉伸张力����你����够最优化丝线的生产。
Threads which, like others made at the centre, will now undergo testing to see if they might be useful in the creation of the new intelligent textiles of the future.
丝线和一些研究中心另外的产品��������将经受严格的测��������以便知����是否在未来的智����纺织品的制����当中是否有用。
