Researchers from Rice University and Hanyang University have developed a new material that moves like skin while preserving signal strength in electronics. This can be a step forward in helping wearables fully-function as wireless and battery-free.
According to a study published today in Nature, an international team of researchers from Rice University and Hanyang University developed the material by embedding clusters of highly dielectric ceramic nanoparticles into an elastic polymer. The material was reverse-engineered to not only mimic skin elasticity and motion types, but also to adjust its dielectric properties to counter the disruptive effects of motion on interfacing electronics, minimize energy loss and dissipate heat.
