Geometry‐Encoded Soft Strain Sensing via Liquid‐Metal Transmission Lines
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents a liquid‐metal transmission‐line strain sensor that achieves intrinsic decoupling by encoding axial elongation into propagation delay. The time‐domain readout remains stable under complex off‐axis. This enables reliable, repeatable, real‐time elongation measurement in dynamic, multiaxial loading environments for wearable electronics,
