Novel Strain Sensor in Weft-Knitted Textile for Triggering of Functional Electrical Stimulation

Functional electrical stimulation (FES) aims to improve the gait pattern in case of foot drop of people suffering chronic diseases, e.g., multiple sclerosis. The fibular nerve can be stimulated by electrical impulses sent through electrodes on the skin, which leads to the contraction of the correspo...
