Wide-Range Motion Recognition Through Insole Sensor Using Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes and Polydimethylsiloxane Composites.

High linearity/sensitivity and a wide dynamic sensing range are the most desirable features for pressure sensors to accurately detect and respond to external pressure stimuli. Even though a number of recent studies have demonstrated a low-cost pressure sensing device for a smart insole system by using scalable and deformable conductive materials, they still lack stretchability and desirable properties such as high sensitivity, hysteresis, linearity, and fast response time to obtain accurate and reliable data. To resolve this issue, a flexible and stretchable piezoresistive pressure sensor with high linear response over a wide pressure range is developed and integrated in a wearable insole system.

Non-contact Wearable EEG Sensors for SSVEP-based Brain Computer Interface Applications.

Electroencephalography (EEG) based brain computer interfaces (BCI) introduces promising communication pathway between the brain and external devices, not only for the motor-impaired but also the healthy users. However, the current EEG-based interface device is not convenient enough for daily uses. In this study, we developed an EEG acquisition system that records brain signals without contacting scalp.
