Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of flexible wearable electronic devices, relates to a fabric-based capacitive sensor, and also relates to a manufacturing method of the capacitive sensor. Background technique [0002] Smart textiles are a kind of textiles that highly integrate electronic technology and fabrics. In addition to maintaining the basic functions of traditional textiles, they also have functions such as monitoring, information processing and communication. It has broad application prospects. Smart textiles are generally composed of sensors, actuators, data processing, communication, and power supplies. Sensors are the key for smart textiles to realize the interaction between the human body and the outside world, which requires the sensors to have good flexibility, high sensitivity and fast response. Traditional sensors are mostly composed of metals and semiconductors, and have poor coupling with fabrics. After direct integration...
