A Comprehensive Investigation of the Electrical Features of Commercial Resistive Flex Sensors
نویسنده
چکیده
Resistive flex sensors have been gaining more and more importance in the latest years. They are applied in many and different fields ranging from human body tracking, traffic safety, musical instruments and so on. These sensors have the mechanical advantage to be low-weight, unobtrusive and pliable. However from an electrical point of view different works have been devoted to investigate single properties, but there is a lack of a comprehensive investigation, useful to select the proper sensor for the proper application. This paper is devoted to fill this lack. Keywords-resistive flex sensor; bend sensor.

متن کاملFeasibility of Commercial Resistive Flex Sensors for Hand Tracking Applications
Human hand is a masterpiece of mechanical complexity, and the measure of its motion capabilities can be a challenging matter. Currently, these measures are generally performed by standard-gold techniques which mostly rely on video-based systems, advantageously effective, but disadvantageously expensive and timeconsuming. To overcome such limitations, different researchers have been proposing di...
متن کاملCurvature Characterization of Flex Sensors for Human Posture Recognition
Resistive flex sensors have been increasingly used in different areas for their interesting property to change their resistance when bent. They can be employed in those systems where a joint rotation has to be measured, in particular biomedical systems, to measure human joint static and dynamic postures. In spite of their interesting properties, such as robustness, low price and long life, to d...
