Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a flexible bionic electronic skin and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of sensors and bionics. Background technique [0002] As the largest organ of the human body, the skin covers the whole body of the human body and can sense the external environment (such as temperature, pressure, etc.) All are developing rapidly, and bionic electronic skin has also emerged as the times require, making the functions of prosthetics or robots closer to the functions of the human body itself, which can help those with physical defects to improve their lives better. [0003] Most of the electronic skins in the prior art only have the characteristics of sensing pressure or temperature, and the processing technology is complicated and the cost is high, so it is not suitable for large-scale industrial production. In addition, the prepared electronic skin has poor flexibility and does not have the sensory function of f...
