Flexible Sensors for Better Sensing Artificial Skin

Using gold nano particles on top of a PVC substrate, researchers have built a new type of cheap, flexible sensor that simultaneously detects pressure, humidity and temperature with surprising accuracy.

While current kinds of e-skin detect only touch, the invention can simultaneously sense touch, humidity, and temperature, as real skin can do. Additionally, the new system is at least 10 times more sensitive in touch than the currently existing touch-based e-skin systems.
The sensors has multiple applications, from monitoring cracks in bridges to creating a better artificial skin to benefit amputees. It might even be used to give robots that special "human touch
