1
00:00:03,420 --> 00:00:05,690
In this case study,
the challenge

2
00:00:05,690 --> 00:00:10,060
was to focus on one very
important characteristic

3
00:00:10,060 --> 00:00:15,270
of this very flexible
electronic sensor.

4
00:00:15,270 --> 00:00:17,650
And that, in fact,
is what we're going

5
00:00:17,650 --> 00:00:20,730
to focus on in this
attempt to show

6
00:00:20,730 --> 00:00:26,880
the flexibility of this very,
very thin film of electronics.

7
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:31,590
So I first put it on
something that is strange.

8
00:00:31,590 --> 00:00:35,610
It's actually the inside
of a plastic Petri dish.

9
00:00:35,610 --> 00:00:39,810
And I'm thinking that that's
showing the flexibility.

10
00:00:39,810 --> 00:00:43,620
And I took another point
of view of the same set up.

11
00:00:43,620 --> 00:00:47,020
I kind of liked it because
I'm very, very focused

12
00:00:47,020 --> 00:00:50,770
and you can see the
bending and folding.

13
00:00:50,770 --> 00:00:53,810
Then I tried something
a little more rigid,

14
00:00:53,810 --> 00:00:57,640
a piece of cardboard that was
folded into a couple of areas.

15
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,160
I sort of like that one.

16
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,810
The researchers took
their own images,

17
00:01:03,810 --> 00:01:07,040
which are these in
front of you, showing

18
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:13,400
that this sensor is placed on
the skin and that it stretches.

19
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,190
And I'm not sure about
which images are better.

20
00:01:17,190 --> 00:01:21,770
These definitely showed the
stretchability and flexibility

21
00:01:21,770 --> 00:01:25,670
of this very thin
membrane sensor.

22
00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:28,830
Whether or not you want to
look at this for a long time is

23
00:01:28,830 --> 00:01:32,950
another story, but maybe take
a look at the differences

24
00:01:32,950 --> 00:01:35,720
and you make the decision.
