Silicone Mold Implementation for High-Sensitive Detection of Strain Sensing using Paper-Based Piezoresistive System
This paper presents the design, fabrication, experimental results and related discussion of a portable bending enhancing silicone mold structure for biomedical applications in which a high-sensitive but low-cost force measurement structure with a large-dynamic range is required. Proposed system is composed of a replaceable parts like graphite coated Strathmore® 400 series Bristol paper and cheap RTV-2 silicone molds. The results shows that low-cost, portable and high-sensitive force and strain sensor systems can be realized for point-of-care biomedical applications in the future.
