THEORY: FSRs are basically a resistor that changes its resistive value (in ohms Ω) depending on how much it is pressed. These sensors are fairly low cost, and easy to use. They also vary some from ...

The force sensor is made from a 3M foam earplug which has been saturated with a conductive ink. [chiprobot] doesn’t go into many details about his specific method, but using conductive foam as a ...

In this work, we propose a novel wearable and affordable system able to predict in real-time different postures of the upper-extremities (UEs) by classifying force myographic (FMG) signals of the ...

As a result, the accuracy with and without principal components analysis (PCA) is compared. The system mainly detects the walking pattern through pressure sensors embedded in the footwear, and the ...

Abstract: We propose a highly sensitive pressure sensor using an elastic micro pyramid array with a gold-coated surface pressing on a resistive silicon beam. When a pressure was applied on the pyramid ...
