Thermal Radiation Sensors Based on Ionic-Conducting Pectin Films.

ABSTRACT: Artificial electronic skins that mimic the properties and functionality of human skin are becoming increasingly important for human-robot interactions. One ability of human skin yet to be thoroughly imitated in electronic skins is non-contact temperature sensing. Imitating this property will be useful for creating novel touch-free interfaces for human-centered robotic systems. Ionic-conducting sensing layers made from crosslinked pectin films have recently been found to exhibit extremely high contact temperature sensitivity, several orders of magnitude greater than traditional sensors. However, pectin film sensors suffer from large baseline conductance decays during prolonged measurements, and their non-contact thermal radiation sensing capabilities have not yet been systematically investi
