Artificial Skin Could Help Burn Victims "Feel" Again

University of Connecticut (UConn) scientists say a new type of sensor could lead to artificial skin that someday may help burn victims “feel” again. They described their research (“An Ultra-Shapeable, Smart Sensing Platform Based on a Multimodal Ferrofluid-Infused Surface”) in Advanced Materials. “The development of wearable, all‐in‐one sensors that can simultaneously monitor several hazard conditions in a real‐time fashion imposes the emergent requirement for a smart and stretchable hazard avoidance sensing platform that is stretchable and skin‐like.
