Tamper-resistant sensors with one or more shaped, flexible layers

Abstract

Tamper-resistant assembly (600; 800; 1500; 2100) which exhibits: a tamper-responsive sensor (500; 605; 610, 611, 612; 811, 821; 821, 822; 1200; 1510, 1520; 1510', 1520'), wherein the tamper-responsive sensor has: at least one shaped, flexible layer (510; 1700) with a first side (511; 1701) and a second side (512; 1702) opposite the first side, wherein the at least one shaped, flexible layer has surface curvatures (513) extending from the first side and surface curvatures (513) extending from the second side, wherein the at least one shaped, flexible layer is folded together as at least one flattened, folded-over layer; and Circuit lines (501; 1705) forming at least one resistance network, wherein the circuit lines are arranged on the first side and / or the second side of the at least one shaped, flexible layer, wherein the circuit lines are at least partially wrapped around the surface curvatures extending from the at least one of the first sides or the second side of the at least one shaped, flexible layer.
