Stretchable Location Sensor Based on Transparent AgNWs Electrodes

Abstract

This paper presents a high-precision location sensor based on PDMS/AgNWs thin film, which enhances the transparency and stretchability of the device. It can be attached to human skin with conformal coverage, keeping the function under the elongation of 60%. The position and resistances have a good linear relationship which make the device can work as the analog mode of location theoretically. Particularly, this 2D panel sensor has potential applications such as wearable devices and E-skin for smart robots.
