Copyright©2015, ACM. b Piezoresistance74. (1) Schematic of the scalable manufacturing of tactile sensing textiles using a customized coaxial piezoresistive fiber fabrication system and digital machine knitting. (2) The piezoresistive functional fiber (>100 m) and sensing fabrics. (3) The resistance profile of a typical sensor (composed of two piezoresistive fibers) in response to pressure (or normal force). (4) Digitally designed and automatically knitted full-sized tactile sensing wearables: vest, sock, and glove. (5) Procedure for self-supervised correction of the vest using the response of the calibrated glove as the reference. Copyright©2021, Springer Nature. c Soft Pneumatic80.
