Flexible Electronics To See Deeper and Feel Better

#distinguished #flexibleelectronics #dl #sensors #organic

Printing with solution-processable materials is a versatile approach that can lead to devices that are economical and easily reconfigurable. Here we present the design and additive processing of polymeric materials to achieve optoelectronics and soft sensors for human-computer interfaces. We will discuss three example use cases, including sensors for infrared imaging that enable deeper penetration depth, a biomechanical tool for motor disorder diagnosis, and structural supercapacitors for energy storage. The presentation aims to summarize the key challenges and future opportunities of integrating polymer electronics in human-computer interfaces for various remote sensing applications such as in telemedicine and internet-of-things sensor networks.
