A wearable tissue paper sensor able to track pulse rate or eye movements could have applications ranging from healthcare to robotics.
Developed by a team from the University of Washington, the lightweight, affordable sensor is made from tissue paper that has been coated with carbon nanotubes and then stretched. This causes the coated fibers of the paper to reorient and form new junctions that function as extremely sensitive resistive and capacitive sensors able to measure heartbeat, eye motion, and other ‘human behavior.’
