Assemblies of Microfluidic Channels and Micropillars Facilitate Sensitive and Compliant Tactile Sensing

Recent advances in soft electronics are enabling new devices that can stretch and conform to curved, soft, or dynamic surfaces, whether in engineering systems or the human body. However, the close coupling of mechanical and electronic behavior in these devices can limit performance and introduce artifacts. In order to mitigate negative effects, and to facilitate greater control over mechanical and...
