Sensing structure without touching
It senses interference in the electric field between an object and the sensor, at up to 100 millimetres from the object.

- Electronic skins have become a crucial element in bionic robots, allowing them to detect and react to external stimuli promptly.
- It can be made and processed by a specific 3D printing method, called dispensing printing, that offers fine control over the structure and pattern of the printed high-viscous ink.
- Incorporating the sensing grid into a printed circuit board allowed the data it collects to be transmitted over the 4G networks widely used by mobile phones.
