Deskripsi

Designing mechanosensory system that detects mechanical contact forces like human skin remains a challenge. Here, the authors present artificially innervated self-healing foams by embedding 3D electrodes for piezo-impedance sensors that can operate in both piezoresistive and piezocapacitive sensing modes to address various proximity and mechanical interactions efficiently.
