Conformable Electronics: Tattoo Conductive Polymer Nanosheets for Skin‐Contact Applications (Adv. Healthcare Mater. 7/2015)

Abstract

Conductive tattoo nanosheets are fabricated on top of decal transfer paper and transferred onto skin or other target surfaces as temporary transfer tattoos. Tattoo nanosheets, reported by V. Mattoli, F. Greco, and co-workers on page 983, are envisioned as unperceivable human-device interfaces because of conformal adhesion to skin. They are tested as dry electrodes for surface electromyography (sEMG) which permits the control of a robotic hand.
