Abstract

and bending angle, the electrical signals of human limb movement can output relevant information on bending angle and frequency. By constructing a sensing array, changes in the position and magnitude of applied pressure could also be detected in real-time. Based on these advantages, the MNR-PANI-PA composite sensor is expected to have potential applications in health monitoring, body motion detection, and electronic skins.
