Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, at present, flexible active sensors are facing problems such as poor sensing performance due to irrational sensing structure and complex manufacturing process of small arrays.
The sensors designed and developed based on flexible sensing materials are mainly used to sense bending, and there are few studies on the sensing of pressure forms. The poor sensing performance is mainly manifested in low response amplitude. The voltage response amplitude of flexible sensing devices with traditional cantilever beam structures is still 1-10mV magnitude range
[0004] Existing research mainly focuses on capacitive and piezoresistive flexible sensing devices, but there is little research on flexible active pressure sensing devices made of ion-exchange resin materials. Compared with single ion-exchange resin material sensors, ion-exchange resin material arrays The formed artificial skin has the functions of vector measurement and distribution measurement, and is more widely used, but there are few studies in this area; most of the existing flexible active sensors adopt the sandwich structure in the electrode layout scheme, that is, the upper and lower The sensing material is sandwiched between the two electrode sheets. On the one hand, the sensitivity of the sensing device is not high, and the assembly is difficult. On the other hand, the instability caused by physical contact is difficult to solve. The unstable contact also brings a lot of noise interference. , which seriously restricts the performance of flexible sensing devices
