Soft, Transparent, Electronic Skin for Distributed and Multiple Pressure Sensing

Soft, Transparent, Electronic Skin for Distributed and Multiple Pressure Sensing

In this paper we present a new optical, flexible pressure sensor that can be applied as smart skin to a robot or to consumer electronic devices. We describe a mechano-optical transduction principle that can allow the encoding of information related to an externally applied mechanical stimulus, e.g.,...
