Introduction Electronic skin Idea Development of e-skin Working Application Advantage Disadvantage Uses Conclusion
INDEX
Electronic plays a very important role in developing simple devices used for any purpose.
Material which mimics the Human Skin in one or more ways
The best achievement as well the future example of integrated electronics in the medical field is the electronic skin.
INTRODUCTION
It made from biocompatible silicon rubber with pressure sensitive sensors.
It can measure electrical activity of the heart, brain waves and other vital signs.
Ultra thin skin turn on hand
e-skin can be directly laminated on the surface of the skin, allowing us to electronically functionalize human skin.
It attaches to the skin like a stick-on tattoo.
ELECTRONIC SKIN
It borrowed directly kids temporary transfer tattoos.
It attaches through the weak forces of van de wals interactions.
Circuitry “spider web” of materials
Narrow snake like silicon filaments that serve as wires connected to tiny the sensors designed to monitor particular bodily functions.
IDEA
Human skin can sense pressure, temperature, stretch and can heal itself
2010:a) attaching nanowire transistor to sticky substrate,
embedded in thin pressure sensitive rubber capable of sensing wide range of pressure (california university)
b) First prototype for e-skin
2011:a) a) stretchable solar cell used to power the electronic
skin (stanford). 2012:a) self healing capacityb) Made by nickel and plastic
DEVELOPMENT OF E-SKIN
Antenna is used to transmit the recorded electrical signals of skin to the receiver.
Strain gauges are used for measuring the signals generated by the heart.
Temperature sensors are used for measuring the temperature.
WORKING
It takes the signals from the body and transfer them to the device.
Localized electrical stimulation: “smart bandage”: temperature changes across the wound.
Muscle contractions in the neck can control the mouse in computer game.
APPLICATION
APPLICATION
Multifunctional sensor for normal, shear, and torsion strains made from interlocking, metal-coated fibers
Stretchable sensor system able to measure pressure.
Strain composed of buckled CNT-based electrodes.
The right-most pane depicts the pressure distribution measured by pressing on the center pixel.
Recent devices have already surpassed the capabilities of biological skin in terms of sensitivity, spatial resolution, and stretchability.
ADVANTAGE
COST IS VERY HIGH
SINGLE USE
DISADVANTAGE
ROBOTICS
HEALTH APPLICATION
SMART WALLPAPERS
E-PAPERS
USES
In future even virtual screens may be placed on the device for knowing our body function.
It has bright future in robotics industries to make it sensible also.
FUTURE SCOPE
The electronics skin is one such device that depicts the beauty of electronics and its uses in daily life.
The electronic devices gain more demand in the market when they are in compact in size and best in functioning.
CONCLUSION
