This development raises a need for customized smart fashion with reinforced human-friendly features so that users can choose from various functions and designs according to their situations and purposes. This study set out to develop a textile-type flexible printed circuit(FPC) touch sensor with a jet dispenser, identifying seven requirements in the aspects of function and design through the examination of previous studies and case analysis. Using them as guidelines, the study also aimed to develop a customized detachable smart fashion product.The study developed a textile sensor fit for the physical properties of a textile with reinforced wearability and flexibility by using FPC and proposed customized smart fashion based on it. The study also proposed a moduletype detachable customized platform to allow users to choose a function and design according to their situations. It offered a function to allow users to change a variety of patterns on a flexible LED display with a touch sensor in real time.Fusion study is significant in that the customized smart fashion developed in it can lead to the creation of a new business integration IT with high value added fashion and is human-friendly, providing custom service according to the purposes and tastes of users. Follow-up study will focus on improving crack and durability features in conductive materials in textile-type touch sensors and welding them into a fabric after printing them on PI or TPU.
