Smart manufacturing has attracted significant attention from both researchers and manufacturing
experts owing to its capability of accomplish the goals of Industry 4.0. It significantly …

In this paper, five sensing mechanisms including capacitive, piezoresistive, inductive,
piezoelectric, and optical are reviewed in details with representative literature. Basic functions of …

Here, in comparison to indirect and nonvisualizable detections that usually convert strains
from electrical signals, the strain sensors that show visible signals with operation simplicity …

Soft and flexible arrays of pressure or force sensors are particularly useful for wearable and
robotic applications. This article presents a soft and flexible sensor array made from carbon …

Transparent electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials are highly in demand for
liquid crystal display, communication devices and observation windows. In this study, two …

In this paper, we present demonstration results for a contactless electrostatic vibration
energy harvester (E-VEH) using electric double layer electrets (EDLEs). We, for the first time, …

We present a highly elastic and flexible capacitive pressure/force sensing array assembled
from elastic conductive thin films of carbon black composite. A robust simple fabrication …

This study develops a novel mutual capacitive tactile sensor for a touch panel with shifted
finger-type electrodes with high sensitivity and other benefits. This tactile sensor detects normal…

A flexible ITO/ZnO/TiO x /ITO memristor has been confirmed to be a suitable candidate for
nociceptors by demonstrating all of the typical nociceptive characteristics. The annealing effect …

This paper proposes a capacitive tactile sensor for applications in normal force, shear force,
and xy-plane shear angle sensing. This tactile sensor enabled shear force angle detection …
