Stretchable Filler/Solid Rubber Piezoresistive Thread Sensor for Gesture Recognition.

ABSTRACT: Recently, the stretchable piezoresistive composites have become a focus in the fields of the biomechanical sensing and human posture recognition because they can be directly and conformally attached to bodies and clothes. Here, we present a stretchable piezoresistive thread sensor (SPTS) based on Ag plated glass microspheres (Ag@GMs)/solid rubber (SR) composite, which was prepared using new shear dispersion and extrusion vulcanization technology. The SPTS has the high gauge factors (7.8~11.1) over a large stretching range (0-50%) and approximate linear curves about the relative change of resistance versus the applied strain. Meanwhile, the SPTS demonstrates that the hysteresis is as low as 2.6% and has great stability during 1000 stretching/releasing cycles at 50% strain. Considering the e
