A gallium-based liquid metal integrated system that combines soft electronics materials and engineering designs with advanced near-field-communication (NFC) functionality is reported. Electro-mechanical characterization of the device reveals their behaviors under large uniaxial tensile and compressive strains, as well as more complex modes of deformation. Demonstrations of these devices involve their use in monitoring of various human motions in a purely wireless fashion.
