Textile that includes an electronic system

A wearable electronic system, comprising:

• a stretchable body that includes an integrated circuit that is mounted to the stretchable body and is configured to compute and communicate with an external device;
• a textile to be worn by a user, wherein the stretchable body is attached to a first area of the textile;
• a sensing node attached to a second area of the textile;
• at least one sensor that sends signals to the sensing node by meandering conductors, wherein the sensing node sends signals to the integrated circuit by meandering conductors, wherein each sensor is attached a different area of the textile than the integrated circuit;
• a power source attached to a third area of the textile, wherein the power source provides power to at least the integrated circuit;
• and an antenna attached to a fourth area of the textile, wherein the antenna is configured to send and receive signals to and from the integrated circuit and the external device by meandering conductors, wherein the first, second, third and fourth areas of the textile are separate from one another.
