Detecting dynamic multi-scale human motion requires the stretchable strain sensor to possess outstanding properties in every aspect. Unlike conventional strain sensors which focus on changing conductive materials and preparing methods, we introduce a novel mechanical structure design to control the performance of the strain sensor. The performance of the device can be simply controlled by the structural design rather than complex materials adjustments. So the complexity of the material preparation will be greatly reduced, thus promotes the materials translation and production. By designing an asymmetric structure of elastomer substrate and protect layer with different adjustable parameters, the strain distribution in elastomer can be controlled, which finally change the performance of strain sensors. The experiment results illustrated our works on changing the stretchablity and sensitivity of the strain sensors. Application tests on human body including subtle-scale strain like pulse and large-scale strain like elbow bending are conducted to prove our capability for multi-scale motion detecting.

Additive manufacturing (AM) is an umbrella term for various layer-based manufacturing processes which are often portrayed as a new technological revolution. Despite impressive AM process developments the revenue of the AM industry is still a fraction of that of other manufacturing processes. This AM based revenue discrepancy raises many questions. They include: (1) What makes AM so special? and (2) How could the disruptive potential of AM be unlocked? We seek to add to the literature by providing an answer to elements of these questions through the development of a framework we call the ‘Magic Cube’. We utilize the concept of vertical and horizontal innovation theory as one basis for this framework. Further we adopt a tension perspective on automation and individualisation drawn from operations research to develop a theoretical framework. The result is the ‘Magic Cube’, a tool that is designed to support researchers and practitioners in demonstrating the unique strengths of AM and its potential areas of application.

Many see additive manufacturing (AM) and the internet of things (IoT) as two of the harbingers of the next Schumpeterian Cycle or Industry 4.0 (I 4.0). We use business cycle theory to demonstrate the technology basis for these technologies commercial interactions. We describe how AM techniques are poised to assist in overcoming hurdles in the IoT infrastructure technologies and how the IoT technologies are assisting AM based techniques. We discuss a model for AM application, and how international collaboration is speeding their co-development. We set the bases for the importance of emerging techniques in AM and the IoT that which are now helping to form the basis of I 4.0.
