Abstract
In this work, we present a flexible printed multi-functional sensor platform for medical applications. The device consists of printed temperature and force elements on a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB). The thickness, curing temperatures and encapsulating epoxies are optimized for the individual inks and the device is assembled and tested on the benchtop. Force measurements against impedance and temperature measurements against impedance were then conducted and discussed. The performance of both sensors were then characterized.
