A Sprayable Electrically Conductive Edible Coating for Piezoresistive Strain Sensing

Dario Floreano, Bokeon Kwak, Pietro Rossi

Edible electronics leverages the electronic properties of food-derived materials to deliver safer technologies that can be degraded (or digested) in the environment (or body) at the end-of-life. Sensors will be central to future smart edible robots, and ed ...

Elastomeric substrates with embedded stiff platforms for stretchable electronics

Stéphanie Lacour, Alessia Romeo

Stretchable electronics typically integrate hard, functional materials on soft substrates. Here we report on engineered elastomeric substrates designed to host stretchable circuitry. Regions of a stiff material, patterned using photolithography, are embedd ...

Drop-On-Demand Inkjet Printing of SU-8 Polymer

Jürgen Brugger, Alcherio Martinoli, Vahid Fakhfouri, Grégory Mermoud, Joo Yeon Kim

This paper presents drop-on-demand inkjet printing of SU-8 on functionalized surfaces for direct printing of computer controlled polymer patterns. The high viscosity of SU-8 required an in-depth investigation of the print parameters such as pulse amplitude ...

An Ink Spreading Model for Dot-On-Dot Spectral Prediction

Roger Hersch, Adish Kumar Singla

Due to increasing printing accuracies and the possibility of printing several droplets at the same pixel location, there is a renewed interest in dot-on-dot printing models. In the present contribution, we improve a dot-on-dot spectral prediction model rel ...

Spectral reflection and dot surface prediction models for color halftone prints

Roger Hersch, Patrick Emmel, Frédérique Crété

The proposed new spectral reflection model enhances the classical Clapper-Yule model by taking into account the fact that proportionally more incident light through a given colorant surface is reflected back onto the same colorant surface than onto other c ...

Prediction model for color separation, calibration and control of printers

Roger Hersch, Patrick Emmel

The present invention facilitates the calibration of printers and the color separation of input images into a set of inks by disclosing methods and systems for populating device-calibration lookup tables. The disclosed methods and systems rely on a compreh ...
