Abstract:
1. A liner interface with neural receptors comprising: a tubular fabric layer having an inner surface and an outer surface; at least one electrically conductive receptor comprising a non-compressible, deformable patch having an outer surface adapted to be attached to said fabric layer, an inner surface adapted to contact the skin of a user and side surfaces and a selective predetermined thickness between said inner and outer surfaces; said patch adapted to be electrically conductive; an electrically conductive element having a proximal end section extending from said at least one electrically conductive receptor for conducting electric signals therefrom caused by neural impulses from the nerve endings when said interface is in use and a distal end section; said outer surface of the structure of said at least one receptor and an outer surface of said proximal end section of said electrically conductive element themselves are attached only to said inner surface of said fabric layer at a selective location based on the area of the user to be sensed; said inner surface of said fabric and said side surfaces of said receptor and said electrically conductive element having a predetermined thickness of gel coated thereon; and wherein said predetermined thickness of said receptor is greater than or equal to said predetermined thickness of said gel material coating.
