Abstract
Future sensing applications will include high-performance features, such as toxin detection, real-time monitoring of physiological events, advanced diagnostics, and connected feedback. However, such multi-functional sensors require advancements in sensitivity, specificity, and throughput with the simultaneous delivery of multiple detection in a short time. Recent advances in 3D printing and electronics have brought us closer to sensors with multiplex advantages, and additive manufacturing approaches offer a new scope for sensor fabrication. To this end, we review the recent advances in 3D-printed cutting-edge sensors. These achievements demonstrate the successful application of 3D-printing technology in sensor fabrication, and the selected studies deeply explore the potential for creating sensors with higher performance. Further development of multi-process 3D printing is expected to expand future sensor utility and availability.
Highlights
Three-dimensional (3D) printing, known as additive manufacturing, has attracted much attention from the public and the media in recent years and describes a family of techniques that involve the fabrication of 3D components using material jetting, powder bed fusion, material extrusion, sheet lamination, directed energy deposition, photopolymerization, and binder jetting
The results showed that the sensors demonstrated accurate the gate cycle of a wearer in real time
The antenna performance was demonstrated in an unconventional lossy medium of water, and the sensor was able to communicate across a decent range both in air and half immersed in water
Summary
Three-dimensional (3D) printing, known as additive manufacturing, has attracted much attention from the public and the media in recent years and describes a family of techniques that involve the fabrication of 3D components using material jetting, powder bed fusion, material extrusion, sheet lamination, directed energy deposition, photopolymerization, and binder jetting. These methods create components in a layer-by-layer manner and offer various options regarding cost, feature details and materials. 3D-printed sensors, discuss the advances and limitations in the different fabricating processes, and describe a number of investigated devices according to their categorization by application.
