Flexible Temperature-Pressure Organic Sensor

Abstract

Our work intends to develop dual-parameter pressure-temperature sensors by taking advantage of the independent thermoelectric and piezo resistive effects in a single flexible and compressible conductive foam. Such device allows to make measurements of simultaneous temperature and pressure monitoring by transducing external stimuli into separate electrical signals. The devices can be self-powered by a temperature gradient with a promising temperature and pressure detection resolution for applications in artificial intelligence and healthcare systems. Here, we describe the suggested method and discuss preliminary sensor results.
