South Korean researchers have developed new “smart” prosthetic skin that's as soft and elastic as human skin, and can detect temperature, humidity and even tactile sensation through built-in sensors.
Professor Dae-Hyeong Kim, of the School of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Seoul National University, announced on December 9th the development of the smart prosthetic skin by embedding stretchable microscopic sensors inside of soft silicone rubber. These sensors enable the “skin” to detect pressure, temperature, humidity and even deformation of the skin by force.
