Fabric Pressure Sensors for Fine-Grained Interaction Detection in Plush Toys

Published:08 January 2024Publication History
Skip Abstract Section

Abstract

Recent advances in fabric-based sensors have made it possible to densely instrument plush toys without altering their aesthetic or tactile appeal, unlike traditional sensors whose rigid components can negatively impact the interactive experience. This innovation opens a new realm of interaction possibilities, allowing for the detection of nuanced gestures and movements that are crucial for understanding behavior, enhancing engagement, and potentially monitoring cognitive functions in therapeutic contexts.
