"Smart underwear" sounds futuristic until you realize the trick: the smartest part is the yarn.
From yarn to sensor
Specialty fibers — conductive polymers drawn into textile-grade yarns — respond to physical and chemical changes around them. Knitted into specific zones of the garment, they become stable, flexible sensing surfaces that move the way fabric moves.
Where the electronics come in
A detachable unit — about the size of a small coin — snaps magnetically onto the waistband. It powers the sensing zones, processes readings locally, and encrypts them before anything leaves your body's vicinity. Snap it off to wash; the underwear handles a normal cold cycle.
Why knit beats glued
Glued-on sensors peel. Coated fabrics crack. Knitting the sensor into the structure means comfort, durability, and washability — the three requirements that made every earlier attempt fail.
The result
Five continuous signals — pH, discharge patterns, skin temperature, heart rate and heart rate variability — collected overnight, interpreted by the app, and invisible under your clothes. That's Femora: technology you never have to think about.
