This article presents research on biodegradable stretch sensors produced using biological material. This sensor uses a piezoresistive effect to indicate stretch, which can be used for force measurement. In this work, an attempt was made to develop the composition of a sensitive material and to design a sensor.

The proposed materials are inexpensive and abundant and are available in large quantities in nature. This paper presents the development and experimental study of carrageenan and iron (III)-oxide-based piezoresistive sensor prototypes and provides their main characteristics.
