Abstract

The present research deals with the study of Smart Textiles Prints with interactive ability (dynamic), and determining their patterns, and how the designer of interactive textile prints in this case and through a set of different approaches and design methods that are one of the most prominent forms of future design of determining the appropriate design steps according to functional and aesthetic purpose For each printing design, which is linked to the changing nature of the printing works of art that are interactive, and through research study of a range of previous experiences in the same field and the study of the views of a group of specialists and researchers have been reached A number of important variables and factors that have a direct impact on the design process and on the determination of the approach followed, the current research also deals with the study of modern technological and printing methods and the most important materials used to reach the implementation of interactive textile printings.
