Abstract

Energy harvesting textiles (EHTs) are intelligent fabrics that are designed to harness various sources of available energy like solar rays, mechanical motion, temperature differences, and electromagnetic waves. With their potential to convert various sources of energy, EHTs can be used for self-sustaining wearable technology devices, healthcare monitoring and even sustainable fashion technology. The current literature review provides a compilation of recent advancements in energy harvesting technology, materials, and processing. Also, various key considerations for energy efficiency, robustness, and processing costs are reviewed.
