Abstract:
1. A light-emitting electronic textile comprising: a flexible component carrier having a plurality of light-sources arranged thereon; a cover textile arranged to allow passage through the cover textile of light emitted by said light-sources; and a light-diffusing member arranged between said light-sources and said cover textile, said light-diffusing member comprising a layered structure formed by a plurality of light-diffusing layers in face to face adjacent relationship, wherein adjacent light-diffusing layers in said layered structure are spaced apart at least in portions of said light-diffusing member corresponding to positions of said light-sources, the adjacent layers in the layered structure are folded over forming the faced to faced adjacent layers with air gaps between respective face to face adjacent layers, wherein at least one of the light-diffusing layers is curved in such a way that the adjacent light-diffusing layers, at points along a line passing through the layered structure substantially is perpendicular to the light diffusing member exhibit mutually different radii of curvature.
