Wearable large-area touch sensor: Design, simulation and experimental results. INSCIT 2019 - 4th International Symposium on Instrumentation Systems, Circuits and Transducers, aug. 2019.https://repositorio.fei.edu.br/handle/FEI/4828© 2019 IEEE.This work describes a wearable large-area touch sensor, which has been developed for healthcare purpose. The created model grants real-time response of an individual that touches the fabric, allowing its use as cloth. One of the main goals achieved is the creation of a fabric sensor with flexibility and satisfying humidity transportation levels. Besides the sensor itself a digital system was designed to read sensor information and provide data on the position and intensity of the touch. Furthermore, the developed Simulink model allows accurate simulation of the elaborated sensor, with many trimming tools and adjusts.Acesso RestritoArtigo de evento10.1109/INSCIT.2019.8868503Capacitive sensorField Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)Quartus designTouchable fabric
