Integrating Ultra-Thermal-Sensitive Fluids into Elastomers for Multifunctional Flexible Sensors

An ultra-thermal-sensitive conductive fluid composed of 1-octyl-3-methyl imidazolium acetate is integrated into different designed elastomers for the rapid and precise detection of multiple physical parameters, such as epidermal temperature, near-infrared light, and pressure force. The liquid sensor not only detects temperature and pressure simultaneously but also realizes the signal separation through different sensing mechanism.
