Figure 23. Applications of magnetic soft materials for soft and flexible electronic devices.

Figure 23.

(a) Magnetically reconfigurable soft electronic device based on 3D-printed hard-magnetic composite (Figure 9b) with an integrated soft circuit to exhibit different functions corresponding to its shapes under the applied fields. (b) Hard-magnetic composite with electroplated flexible (serpentine) circuits. Tactile sensors based on (c) soft-magnetic and (d) hard-magnetic composite sheets and (e) 3D-printed hard-magnetic composite mesh with integrated hall-effect sensors to measure the change in the magnetic flux density due to the change in the position and orientation of the embedded hard- or soft-magnetic filler particles under local deformations. (f) Flexible vibration sensor based on hard-magnetic composites with integrated flexible coils.
