Abstract

A new strategy to measure the apex cardiogram with electronic skin technology is presented. An electronic skin apexcardiogram sensor, which can compensate the conventional electrocardiogram for cardiac diagnosis, is demonstrated through a highly sensitive and stretchable strain sensor with gold-nanoparticle composites.

Keywords: apexcardiogram; electronic skin; metal nanoparticles; organic/inorganic composites; stretchable sensors.
