Claim 12:
13. An electronic textile system comprising: a textile substrate; an input device attached to the textile substrate; a docking assembly attached to the textile substrate for removably receiving a controller device, the docking assembly including a first electrical interface for mating with a second electrical interface of the controller device; and an electrical conductive pathway network integrated in the textile substrate for electrically coupling the input device and the first electrical interface, wherein the input device transmits to the controller device electronic signals representing input data when the controller device is received by the docking assembly, and wherein the docking assembly includes: a docking base including the first electrical interface for mating with the second electrical interface of the controller device receivable by the docking assembly; an engagement device adjustably positioned within the docking base in a receive position, the engagement device including a first magnet for interacting with a second magnet of the controller device to align the first electrical interface with the second electrical interface for establishing an electrical connection, and wherein the first magnet repels the second magnet for separating the first electrical interface from the second electrical interface upon movement of the engagement device away from the receive position within the docking base, and wherein the engagement device includes a deformable latch plate mechanically engaging a plug protrusion of the controller device receivable by the docking assembly to align the first electrical interface with the second electrical interface.
