When stretchable sensors are too elastic, turn to heterogeneous silicone

Multi-axis stretchable force and movement sensors can be too stretchy, allowing measurement in one axis to produce errors in another. At least, that is the finding of Yokohama National University. The problem is that forces propagate too far in very stretchy materials, causing unwanted interaction. To prevent this, a Yokohama team has used a very ...
