Initial tests on human fingers suggest that these sensors could be used for continuous health monitoring.
This proposed method for augmenting living structures has the potential for a wide range of applications.
It could revolutionize healthcare, electronic textiles, and environmental monitoring.
Additionally, it could improve the sensory experience in VR applications.
These sensors can be made on-demand, right where theyre needed, and produce minimal waste and emissions.
