Piezoresistive Sensor Based on Micrographite-Glass Thick Films. [PDF]
A new Pb-free glass containing several oxides (Bi2O3, B2O3, SiO2, Al2O3 and ZnO) with sintering temperature reduced down to 600 °C has been developed for applications in a piezoresistive pressure sensor. Using this low sintering temperature glass, it was possible to fabricate micrographite-based pastes and piezoresistive films without losses of ...

Paper-based piezoresistive MEMS sensors [PDF]
This paper describes the development of MEMS force sensors constructed using paper as the structural material. The working principle on which these paper-based sensors are based is the piezoresistive effect generated by conductive materials patterned on a paper substrate. The device is inexpensive (∼$0.04 per device for materials), simple to fabricate,

Piezoresistive Tactile Sensor Discriminating Multidirectional Forces [PDF]
Flexible tactile sensors capable of detecting the magnitude and direction of the applied force together are of great interest for application in human-interactive robots, prosthetics, and bionic arms/feet. Human skin contains excellent tactile sensing elements, mechanoreceptors, which detect their assigned tactile stimuli and transduce them into ...

Slippage Detection with Piezoresistive Tactile Sensors [PDF]
One of the crucial actions to be performed during a grasping task is to avoid slippage. The human hand can rapidly correct applied forces and prevent a grasped object from falling, thanks to its advanced tactile sensing. The same capability is hard to reproduce in artificial systems, such as robotic or prosthetic hands, where sensory motor coordination

Flexible Textile Printed Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors
The combination of sensor technology and textiles substantially extends the range of textile applications. Smart textiles, especially clothing, might increasingly be equipped with pressure sensors. They could be used in the sports or health sector to measure body activities or other activities which are close to the body.

Flexible Graphite-on-Paper Piezoresistive Sensors [PDF]
We demonstrate novel graphite-on-paper piezoresistive devices. The graphite was used as sensing component. The fabrication process can be finished in a short time with simple tools (e.g., a scissor and a pencil). A small array of six paper-based piezoresistive devices is made. The whole device is flexible.

Comparison of Piezoresistive Monofilament Polymer Sensors [PDF]
The development of flexible polymer monofilament fiber strain sensors have many applications in both wearable computing (clothing, gloves, etc.) and robotics design (large deformation control). For example, a high-stretch monofilament sensor could be integrated into robotic arm design, easily stretching over joints or along curved surfaces.
