Stretchy electronics go wireless for flexible wearables #WearableWednesday
Its difficult to be comfortable with some stretch, just think of your favorite sweatpants. This stretchable diode tech may be a key to future wearables.
Flexible electronics offer a lot of potential benefits to the design of wearable technology, but previous intrinsically stretchable semiconductors haven’t been able to meet the strict requirements for the high-frequency operation needed for many useful applications.
Now a team of researchers have developed a new polymer diode that is stretchable and operates at high enough frequency to unlock wireless operation and
Every Wednesday is Wearable Wednesday here at Adafruit! We’re bringing you the blinkiest, most fashionable, innovative, and useful wearables from around the web and in our own original projects featuring our wearable Arduino-compatible platform, FLORA. Be sure to post up your wearables projects in the forums or send us a link and you might be featured here on Wearable Wednesday!
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
