Claim 0:
1. A system for a fibre based temperature sensor integrated into a base fabric layer for a textile, the system comprising:
a first set of wall fibres interlaced with one another to form a first wall structure defining a first cavity along a length, the first set of wall fibres comprising nonconductive material;
at least one conductive first fibre running along the length within the first cavity, such that the first set of wall fibres of the first wall structure encloses the at least one conductive first fibre in order to electrically insulate the at least one conductive first fibre from an environment along the length external to the first cavity;
a second set of wall fibres interlaced with one another to form a second wall structure defining a second cavity along the length, the second set of wall fibres comprising nonconductive material, the wall structures adjacent to one another along the length;
at least one conductive second fibre running along the length within the second cavity, such that the second set of wall fibres of the second wall structure encloses the at least one conductive second fibre in order to electrically insulate the at least one conductive second fibre from the environment along the length external to the second cavity, wherein the first wall structure and the second wall structure are adjacent and interconnected to one another;
a set of base fibres interlaced with one another to form the base fabric layer, the base fabric layer having a first side adjacent with a first fibred interconnection to the first wall structure and a second side adjacent with a second fibered interconnection to the second wall structure, the first fibered interconnection opposed to the second fibred interconnection, the first side and the second side forming a surface of the base fabric layer such that the first wall structure and the second wall structure are interposed between the first and second sides, the first fibred interconnection and the second fibred interconnection forming part of a structural fabric integrity of the set of first wall fibres and the set of second wall fibres respectively in combination with a structural fabric integrity of the set of base fibres;
wherein damage to fibres of at least one of the first fibred interconnection results in destruction of the structural fabric integrity of the set of first wall fibres or the second fibred interconnection results in destruction of the structural fabric integrity of the set of second wall fibres, in combination with the structural fabric integrity of the set of base fibres.
