| Printed electronics: A multi-touch sensor customizable with scissors Oct 8th 2013, 15:24 If a pair of long pants is too long, it is cut and hemmed. A board that does not fit into a bookcase is sawed to the right length. People often customize the size and shape of materials like textiles and wood without turning to specialists like tailors or carpenters. In the future this should be possible with electronics, according to the vision of computer scientists who have developed a printable multi-touch sensor whose shape and size everybody can alter. A new circuit layout makes it robust against cuts, damage, and removed areas. | | Printed electronics: A multi-touch sensor customizable with scissors Oct 8th 2013, 15:24 If a pair of long pants is too long, it is cut and hemmed.
