STRETCHABLE STRAIN SENSOR, COMBINATION SENSOR, AND DISPLAY PANEL AND DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18535479 titled 'STRETCHABLE STRAIN SENSOR, COMBINATION SENSOR, AND DISPLAY PANEL AND DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The stretchable strain sensor described in the patent application includes a light-emitting element, an optical structure, and a photo-detective element. The sensor is designed to detect changes in light transmission or reflection as it is stretched.
- Light-emitting element: Emits light that travels through the sensor.
- Optical structure: Changes its optical properties when the sensor is stretched.
- Photo-detective element: Detects light that has passed through or reflected off the optical structure.
Potential Applications
The technology could be used in various fields such as wearable technology, healthcare monitoring, and robotics.
Problems Solved
The stretchable strain sensor provides a flexible and reliable way to measure strain in real-time, allowing for more accurate monitoring and control in various applications.
Benefits
- Flexibility and stretchability - Real-time strain monitoring - Improved accuracy in measuring strain
Potential Commercial Applications
"Stretchable Strain Sensor Technology for Wearable Devices"
Possible Prior Art
There are existing strain sensors that are not as flexible or stretchable as the one described in this patent application.
Unanswered Questions
How does the sensor handle different types of light sources?
The patent application does not specify how the sensor interacts with different types of light sources, such as natural light or artificial light.
What is the expected lifespan of the sensor?
The patent application does not mention the expected lifespan of the stretchable strain sensor and how it may be affected by continuous stretching and use.
Original Abstract Submitted
A stretchable strain sensor includes a light-emitting element, an optical structure, and a photo-detective element. The stretchable strain sensor is located in a path of light emitted from the light-emitting element. The optical structure is configured to have optical properties that change in response to stretching of at least a portion of the stretchable strain sensor. The photo-detective element is configured to detect light transmitted through the optical structure or reflected through the optical structure.
