Sensitive Strain Sensor Created That Can Detect the Weight of a Feather
The sensor, developed by the Materials Physics Group at the University of Sussex, can stretch up to 80 times higher strain than strain gauges currently on the market and show resistance changes 100 times higher than the most sensitive materials in research development.
The research team believes the sensors could bring new levels of sensitivity to wearable tech measuring patients’ vital signs and to systems monitoring...
