Wearable pressure sensor based on solution-coated fabric for pulse detection

초록

Wearable devices have developed significantly due to the use and development of various materials such as organic materials and carbon nanotubes, and the demand for wearables is also growing. The piezoresistive pressure sensor has been developed using conductive fabric coated with a simple solution coating process. The fabric has an open structure with the interconnected top and lower layers that can be utilized as pressure sensors and can detect physical movements. The piezoresistive pressure sensor has excellent resistance linearity in the low pressure to 10kPa range, as well as consistent resistance to strain up to 20% when stretched. The pressure sensor array can detect pressure-induced local deformation and will be expected to contribute considerably to the development of wearable devices with a simplified process.
