OE-A at ISPO 2020: Flexible and Printed Electronics for Enabling Smart Sportswear

Flexible sensors to monitor your performance, motion and physical conditions, improve your training as well as prevent injuries. Integrated lighting for additional safety or self-heating jackets to increase your well-being. Organic and printed electronics stands for a revolutionary new type of electronics, which are thin, lightweight, flexible, robust and produced at low cost, from organic, polymeric or inorganic materials. The high degree of freedom of design requires a holistic approach in product design to enable this wide range of novel applications. 

On January 26-29, ISPO 2020 – the world’s largest trade fair for the sports industry – takes place at Messe München in Munich, Germany. Also this year OE-A will represent the flexible and printed electronics industry at ISPO in Munich, Germany. Attend the OE-A Seminar and visit the LOPEC information booth to find out what this technology all enables in the sports business.
