Stretchable circuits have the advantage that they also work in textiles such as clothing. However, their production is considered to be very costly. A new, simplified process has now been presented by two computer scientists from Saarland University. It is based on a so-called laser cutter and its precise, fast cuts. These are provided by easy-to-use software developed by Daniel Gröger and Professor Jürgen Steimle for designers. Since the necessary materials are available on the market, almost any person can now produce stretchable electronics for their own purposes.

The Airbus A380 is the largest commercial aircraft in series production. When the wide-bodied aircraft lands safely, its control software has set countless components in motion at the correct times over 500 kilometers of cable. The basics for the automatic analysis of such time-critical software systems, such as those found in cars, trains and industrial plants, come from computer scientists at Saarland University. For their pioneering work, which was published in 2001, they were honored yesterday evening in New York at the International Conference on Embedded Software.
