High-tech magic carpets may one day detect or even predict falls

An article over on the BBC details exciting news about research being done regarding how carpets can be used to detect or even predict falls.

The “magic carpet” that was demonstrated had a grid of sensors beneath it comprised of fiber optic strands that detect and plot movement as pressure from above bends them. Detectors at the edge of the carpet then convert the light returned into a signal that a computer then analyzed.

Can you imagine the uses for this type of carpet in the homes of our elderly? As we age, we want to keep our independence, and children want to maintain our safety. Carpets with sensors such as this could provide the peace of mind required for both.

Custom designed bordered rug fabricated for a Greenville customer

Rug with custom border 02Earlier this month we had the pleasure of helping a customer design a unique rug for her living room.  The new rug was part of her home renovation in anticipation of her son getting married next year and all of the entertaining of friends and family that goes along with such an occasion.  After bringing into McAbee’s Custom Carpet her furniture fabrics, we were able to pull some carpet samples for her to take home and view in the room with her home lighting. The customer expressed that she would also like for the rug to have a border of another material that complemented her fabrics but did not want an overall look of an oriental rug.

Rug with custom border 01The carpet materials that were chosen were not sold together as a suggested field material and border, but we chose them as the colors matched and together they made for a beautiful compilation.  Once the ordered materials arrive at McAbee’s Custom Carpet, the rug is fabricated with the border, the edge finished with binding, and a felt pad is cut to cushion underneath.  The customer was thrilled with this one of a kind finished product!

Our new web site is nearing finalization!

We have finalized the structure of the McAbee’s Custom Carpet website structure!

Our most popular areas of the site are in the main navigation bar, and subcategories have been added as “dropdowns”. For example, while selecting “Products” would take you to a page describing our product offerings, hovering over the “Products” link will present a list of a few of our most requested manufacturers such as Masland, Shaw, Robertex, Mohawk and the like, selecting those items would direct you to the corresponding page.

Obviously, if you are here today, you are seeing links and pages without much content, but please, check back in a a few days to see how we progress.

Your input is very important to us! In the same way we want to help design, make and install your dream rug, we also want to a website that will be a pleasure for you to use, so please, if you would, share your opinions with us! You can reply to this posting or use our contact form, or do it the old fashioned way and pick up the phone and call us.

Thanks to Homeland Secure IT for their assistance and expertise with the changeover site to the easy-to-manage WordPress from the antiquated layout.

Thank you for your patience while we remodel.
