New Method for Integrating Flexible Electronics Into Skin *****es
http://www.medgadget.com/wp-content/...onic-tatoo.jpgAt the Waseda University in Japan, researchers have come up with a new, cheaper way of producing electronic devices that are flexible, elastic, and adhere to the skin. This development may help body monitoring electronic skin *****es that interface with smartphone apps to become commonly used in medicine and by consumers.

The tech**logy relies onآ*elastomeric films only 1آ*خ¼m thick that can safely contain electronic components sandwiched between them. An inkjet printer is used to put down lines of silver for wiring the components together. Importantly, there’s ** soldering or gluing involved, which allows for a thinner final product that is highly flexible without fear of damage to the electrical connections.

The team demonstrated the tech**logy by integrating an electronic chip and an LED into a ***** that is easily conforms to the skin and continues working for extended time periods.
