In the ear of IoT, due to the demand on wearable and flexible devices, our group develop a new simple heterostructure for flex-sensors. The key features of our sensors are: 1. Multiple sensitivity, 2. Multi-axis detection, 3. Environmental stability. Such a component shows a great potential for the applications of VR and smart medical devices.

Our new technology is an extension of MICAtronics, a new platform for transparent flexible electronics. In this show, we will show new types of flex sensors. Our solution shows promising features of reducing the cost, high sensitivity, multiple and multi-axis measurements. Such a technology delivers new possibilities of flex sensors to develop new applications in wearable devices, robots, and IoT.

The flex sensor we developed can be used for detection of any flex-motion. It shows a great potential to be integrated in smart gloves for VR and smart medical applications.
