A Stretchable Electronic Fabric Artificial Skin with Pressure‐, Lateral Strain‐, and Flexion‐Sensitive Properties

Abstract

A stretchable and multiple-force-sensitive electronic fabric based on stretchable coaxial sensor electrodes is fabricated for artificial-skin application. This electronic fabric, with only one kind of sensor unit, can simultaneously map and quantify the mechanical stresses induced by normal pressure, lateral strain, and flexion.
