CONDUCTIVITY / RESISTIVITY
Electrical resistivity (also known as resistivity, specific electrical resistance, or volume resistivity) is an intrinsic property that quantifies how strongly a given material opposes the flow of electric current. [ref]
Conductive and resisitive fabrics
Conductive and resistive threads
Certain fabrics can be piezoresistive and use to make sensor like pressure. The piezoresistive effect is a change in the electrical resistivity of a semiconductor or metal when mechanical strain is applied
