Abstract: A connection compatibility method is disclosed, which comprises: connecting a mobile device to a first in-vehicle connectivity port; receiving at an compatibility check unit, via the first connectivity port, identification information for the mobile device; determining, based on the identification information, whether the first connectivity port meets a connection requirement for the mobile device; and outputting if it is determined that the first connectivity port does not meet the connection requirement, a notification that the mobile device has been connected to a non-compliant connectivity port.

Abstract: A flexible, elastic garment (1) is provided comprising biomedical sensors (3, 4, 5, 6), an electrical power distribution and data transmission bus (2, 7) and a coupling circuit for allowing contactless transmission of power and data between the sensors and a circuit external to the garment. The sensors (3, 4, 5, 6), and the bus (2, 7) for distributing the electrical power and/or transporting the data from the sensors in the garment are formed by elastic conducting yarns integrated into the fabric of the garment.

Abstract: Flexible, elastic garment (1) comprising biomedical sensors (3, 4, 5, 6), means (2, 7) for contactless transmission of power and data between the sensors and means for receiving and processing the data, characterized in that the sensors (3, 4, 5, 6), and the means (2, 7) for distributing the electrical power and/or transporting the data from the sensors in the garment are formed by elastic conducting yarns integrated into the fabric of the garment.
