Abstract

Electronic skin plays an important role in the age of artificial intelligence. Capacitive pressure sensors, capable of sensing pressure changes through contact, still need to improve their basic performance and comfort of use. In this paper, a flexible strontium alginate film with finely folded crater microstructure prepared by spraying method is introduced as a dielectric layer, together with PDMS film and conductive cloth as a capacitive sensor. The internal and external displacement, potential, and elastic volume ratio of the sensor were simulated using finite element analysis. The sensor has good sensitivity (R2 up to 0.99), very low response and relaxation time (≤ 50 ms), and good cyclic stability. The sensor was also used for performing several simple applications tests.
