KEY FACTORS AND PERFORMANCE CRITERIA IN WEARABLE STRAIN SENSORS BASED ON POLYMER NANOCOMPOSITES

Abstract

Recently, there has been a growing demand for wearable electronic devices/strain sensors in soft robotics body-health monitoring, human-machine interface, and human motion detection. Wearable strain sensors feature fast and multi-stimuli sensitivity, high flexibility, ultra-stretchability, and biocompatibility. Although the progress in flexible strain sensors is exponential, the production of wearable sensors undergoes several challenges, such as reliability and reproducibility...
