Title
An inkjet printed pressure sensor for applications in Active Ageing monitoring
Abstract
In this paper a novel approach is presented for the monitoring of sitting posture. This work addresses the application context of assistive technology for the elderly, as part of a PC Interreg Italy-Malta project, called NATIFLife. The system developed consists in a flexible sensor matrix realized by low-cost inkjet printing. Main advantages of the solution proposed are related to the adopted direct printing technology, which allows for the rapid prototyping of customized solution shaped as a function of users and/or the application context. The idea behind the application, its implementation and the first experimental results on sensor characterization are presented.
