HOW CAN WE IMPROVE THE EXPERIENCE OF ATHLETES BY INCORPORATING TEXTILE TECHNOLOGY?
AITEX wants to reward the most innovative ideas covered by the challenge
The objective is for students to propose new products and new functionalities in textile products that help improve the athlete’s experience (clothes and accessories).
What does “The experience of the athlete” mean? It is an amalgam of all the perceptions that the wearer has during sport. In this particular case, it includes the athlete’s sensations as they interact with textile garments or accessories (usability, design, comfort, etc.).
The competition is open to all 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th students of E.S.O. in the Valencian Community. The proposals will be presented in teams of between 2 and 4 participants.
The deadline for submission of entries is 03/20/2019.
Entries will be evaluated within the following criteria: quality of the submitted proposal, resolution of the proposed problem, innovative and technological design and the viability of the submitted proposal.
