New Delhi: Researchers from the International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad (IIITH) and King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) have developed a low-cost, flexible, pressure-sensitive material for use in healthcare, robotics and wearable devices. The team has demonstrated two real-world applications, a smart computer interface where the sensor reliably detected single and double mouse clicks, as well as a wearable glove. In the latter application, the sensor could determine the weights of the objects being grasped, which has potential applications in robotic grip control and biomedical feedback systems.

The flexible, stretchy foam is........
