  • Fabric-based pressure sensor arrays including intersecting elongated conductive strips on opposite sides of a textile sheet
    Patent number: 11617537
    Abstract: A fabric-based pressure sensor array includes: (1) a first layer including M elongated conductive strips coated thereon; (2) a second layer including N elongated conductive strips coated thereon, the M elongated conductive strips extending crosswise relative to the N elongated conductive strips to define M×N intersections; and (3) a unitary textile sheet extending between the first layer and the second layer so as to overlap the M×N intersections, the textile sheet having a variable resistivity in response to applied pressure so as to define M×N pressure sensors at locations corresponding to the M×N intersections.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 20, 2016
    Date of Patent: April 4, 2023
    Assignees: The Regent of the University of California, Medisens Wireless, Inc.
    Inventors: Majid Sarrafzadeh, Wenyao Xu, Ming-Chun Huang, Nitin Raut, Behrooz Yadegar
