Low angle bending detection semi-transparent piezoresistive sensor
2022
We designed, fabricated, and validated a piezoresistive bending sensor, a fundamental component of wearable electronic devices for monitoring human motion. The most diffused opaque carbon-based resistance flex sensors suffer from low detection for small bending angles. The sensor we here present is based on a semi-transparent active material (fulleropyrrolidine bisadducts polymer) and has the remarkable advantage of good electrical properties for low bending angles. The fabrication steps are effective since a pre-patterned ITO/PET surface is functionalized by chronoamperometric deposition, and the silver electrical contacts are inkjet printed. We propose a fitting function of the measured t…
The Internet of Things for Applications in Wearable Technology
2022
The advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) era has propelled the development of wearable technology. Wearable devices are widely used in medical, healthcare, sports, and safety applications, bringing more convenience to the living environment. Wearable devices can be worn on the body, collect body data using sensors, and process the collected data to obtain valuable information. IoT enables devices to connect and exchange and transmit data. Wearable devices in IoT can collect data for analysis and automatically adjust wearable device functions by connecting the obtained information to other devices. In this paper, we collect and organize articles on wearable devices used in IoT from 2017 to…
