Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we developed an ion polymer metal compound (IPMC) sensor to facilitate smart textile for patient monitoring. We developed a sensor system to measure human movements and bioelectric signals, and evaluated its characteristics. IPMC, conventionally reported as a bending sensor, was configured into a spiral shape in order to measure three dimensional displacements by sensing rotational and stretch motion. We have used gold plate of IPMC as biopotential surface signal electrodes and measured EMG. We investigated the electric characteristic of electrodes using IPMC and showed their practical feasibility as motion sensor and as bioelectric signal electrodes.
