  • Multi-Terminal Sensors for Thread-Based Circuitry
    Publication number: 20220280111
    Abstract: A sensor for sensing a characteristic of a measurement region includes a first thread, a second thread, which comprises a semiconductor, a dielectric that capacitively couples the threads, and a sensing electrode that interacts with the measurement region. This interaction causes a change in an electrical characteristic of the sensing electrode, the sensing electrode is in electrical communication with one of the first and second threads.
