Abstract: A material closure assembly including a material closure, such as zipper or a hook and loop fastener, having a first portion and a second portion that are configured to be releasably joined together; an electrical circuit that is configured to be closed when the first portion of the material closure is entirely joined with the second portion of the material closure; and an first indicator that is electrically connected to the electrical circuit and configured to indicate that the first portion of the material closure is entirely joined with the second portion of the material closure. The material closure assembly thus providing an active feedback system for closures on garments and personal protective equipment (PPE) to alert wearer of incomplete seals between interfaces on modular PPE which could result in the wearer of the PPE being exposed to the surrounding environment outside the PPE.
