The document summarizes electronic skin (e-skin), which aims to mimic human skin. E-skin can be made from biocompatible silicon rubber with pressure sensors and can measure vital signs like heart activity and brain waves. It attaches directly to skin like a temporary tattoo through weak interactions. Future developments include stretchable solar cells to power e-skin and self-healing capabilities. E-skin has applications in health monitoring, robotics, and smart devices. While costly now, e-skin has potential uses and a bright future, especially if made more compact and affordable.

3. INTRODUCTION
Electronic plays a
very important
role in developing
simple devices
used for any
purpose.
Materials which
mimic the Human
skin in one or
more ways.
The best achievements
as well the future
example of integrated
electronics in the
medical filed is the
electronic skin.

4. ELECTRONIC
SKIN
• It made from biocompatible silicon rubber with
pressure sensitive sensors.
• It can measure electrical activity of the heart, brain
waves and other vital signs.
• Ultra thin skin turn on hand.
• e-skin can be directly laminated on the surface of
the skin, allowing us to electronically functionalize
human skin.
• It attached to the skin like a stick on the tattoo.

5. IDEA
It borrowed directly kids temporary transfer tattoos.
It attaches through the weak forces of van de wals interactions.
Circuitry “spider web” of materials.
Narrow snake like silicon filaments that serve as wired connected to tiny the sensors
designed to monitor particular bodily functions.

8. Development of e-skin
2010:
• Attaching nanowire transistor to sticky substrate, embedded in thin pressure sensitive rubber capable of
sensing wide range of pressure (California university)
• First prototype for e-skin
2011 :
• Stretchable solar cell used to power the electronic skin (Stanford)
2012 :
• Self healing capacity
• Made by nickel and plastic

9. WORKING
Antenna is used to
transmit the recorded
electrical signals of skin
to the receiver.
01
Strain gauges are used
for measuring the signals
generated by the heart.
02
Temperature sensors are
used for measuring the
temperature.
03

10. APPLICATION
It takes the signals from the body and transfer
them to the device.
Localized electrical stimulation “ smart
temperature changes across the wound.
Muscle contractions in the neck can control the
mouse in computer game.

13. ADVANTAGE
• Stretchable sensor system able to measure
pressure.
• Strain composed of bucket CNT-based electrodes.
• The right-most pane depicts the pressure
distribution measured by pressing on the center
pixel.
• Recent devices have already surpassed the
capabilities of biological skin in terms of sensitivity,
spatial resolution, and stretchability.

14. DISADVANTAGE
Cost is very high Single use

15. USES
Robotics
Health
applications
Smart
wallpapers
E-Papers Single use

16. FUTURE SCOPE
• In future even virtual screen may be placed on the device for
knowing our body function.
• It has bright future in robotics industries to make it sensible
also.

17. CONCLUSION
The electronics skin id one
such device that depicts
beauty of electronics and
it's used in daily life.
The electronics devices
more demand in the
when they are compact in
size and best in
