Piezoresistive design for electronic skin: from fundamental to emerging applications

Abstract

There is growing recognition that the developments in piezoresistive devices from personal healthcare to artificial intelligence, will emerge as de novo translational success in electronic skin. Here, we review the updates with regard to piezoresistive sensors including basic fundamentals, design and fabrication, and device performance. We also discuss the prosperous advances in piezoresistive sensor application, which offer perspectives for future electronic skin.
