Abstract

* The sensor tape integrates pressure and acceleration sensors, signal-processing electronics, non-volatile memory, and a thin film battery. * For low-cost disposable tapes, we are targeting fabrication techniques such as inkjet printing, laser machining and lamination that are compatible with roll-to-roll manufacturing. * This talk will discuss the progress in organic materials performance and electronics stability to meet the requirements of this sensor application.
