Wearable bionic touch sensor developed successfully

Wearable devices are very hot now, but they are slightly insignificant in front of today’s protagonist, the electronic skin.

Electronic skin is actually a popular name, it has a more scientific and more professional name, called the new wearable flexible bionic touch sensor. Because it is as soft and thin as skin, and it is an electronic device attached to the skin, people are more accustomed to call it electronic skin.

First introduce the research results of our national scientists. This is the electronic skin developed by the researcher Zhang Jian and his team at the Suzhou Institute of Nanotechnology and Nanobionics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Its base is golden silk. After being attached to the skin by static electricity, this electronic skin can timely monitor human health indicators such as pulse, heartbeat, body temperature, and muscle group vibrations to provide timely feedback on changes in human health data. To achieve early disease prevention and diagnosis.

Because the electronic skin is equipped with a highly sensitive conductive nanomaterial, even if it is a slight change in the electrical signal of a certain muscle group, it can accurately sense.

This is an electronic skin developed jointly by the University of Texas and Seoul National University’s research team. It is only 4 centimeters long, 2 centimeters wide and 0.003 centimeters thick. It will look a bit like a tattoo on your hand.

Like the electronic skin developed by Chinese scientists, it has a built-in high-sensitivity sensor that monitors various human data, and it also has a memory that can store and transmit monitoring data.

What's more, this electronic skin has also designed a drug interface that can release the drug directly into the human body through the electronic skin according to the human real-time data and health status, and complete the treatment process more quickly and efficiently.

However, both domestic and foreign electronic skins need to use external power supplies and data transmitters to function properly, and the form and function are still a certain distance away from marketable wearables.
