The work during this period has been very similar to the last one, becuase the partners are focused in the final steps of the system implementation; therefore, during this period the team has continued working in the following work packages:

WP3: Mechanical design of the device

WP4: Mechanical design implementation

WP5: Electronic and control system design

WP6: Electronic design implementation

This work matches with the initial schedule of the Project. The construction of the prototype started during the last period and now many parts of the device are available (see photo); also the electronic tests have started.  And it is foreseen to have the 1^st complete version of the prototype during the next reporting period.

The project was also presented in the ITMA 2011 (The most important textile machinery trade fair in Europe, with more than 120.000 visitors), in the booth of INTEXTER-UPC, as a sample of textile mechanical technology.  the photo shows the device in the booth:
