Soft Strain Sensor for Human Motion Measurement

Health icon, disabled. A red heart with a cardiac rhythm running through it.

The integration of strain sensors into wearable materials allows for the capture of complex movements without the use of expensive equipment. This research will create a sensor that is highly elastic and has low hysteresis. The low hysteresis will minimize the sensor measurement error leading to other wearable robotics in addition to motion measurement.
