Overcoming challenges in material design
The DGIST research team overcame this obstacle through innovative material engineering.
They devised a unique three-dimensional structure that allows the use of PZT while maintaining a high degree of flexibility and stretchability.
“Structures such as 3D buckling have been widely used to impart stretchability to devices,” remarked the study.
This ensures the device can conform to the human body for comfortable, unobtrusive wear.
