Epidermal Inspired Flexible Sensor with Buckypaper/PDMS Interfaces for Multimodal and Human Motion Monitoring Applications.

ABSTRACT: The advancements in the areas of wearable devices and flexible electronic skin have led to the synthesis of scalable, ultrasensitive sensors to detect and differentiate multimodal stimuli and dynamic human movements. Herein, we reveal a novel architecture of an epidermal sensor fabricated by sandwiching the buckypaper between the layers of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS). This mechanically robust sensor can be conformally adhered on skin and has the perception capability to detect real-time transient human motions and the multimodal mechanical stimuli of stretching, bending, tapping, and twisting. The sensor has feasibility for real-time health monitoring as it can distinguish a wide range of human physiological activities like breathing, gulping, phonation, pulse monitoring, and finger and
