Advanced materials for
pressure sensors
Textile pressure sensor
development is challenging for researchers trying to generate scientific
advances in biomedical monitoring (motion, pulse, gate and respiration) or
robotics (artificial electronic skins for robots). The versatile embroidering
of textile materials, technologies with polymers, advanced micro/nanostructured
composites and digitalization (software and microelectronics) generate
innovative wearable products. This chapter presents the main aspects concerning
the materials used and technologies for resistive and capacitive sensors
development.
