Low-cost, μm-thick, tape-free electronic tattoo sensors with minimized motion and sweat artifacts

Flexible electronics: cutting plotters cut costs of electronic tattoos Tattoos able to record heart rate and skin conditions have been fabricated with a low-cost cutting plotter. An international collaboration led by YongAn Huang and Nanshu Lu from the Huazhong University of Science and Technology i...
