The aim of this project is to expand our means of interacting with electronic devices by creating three technologies: (1) transparent and stretchable touch-sensitive films that generate an electrical signal due to ion motion, (2) stretchable and transparent capacitive proximity sensors and (3) thin, bendable tactile feedback displays that are intended to provide localized vibration or textural feedback. These interfaces will be thin films, soft, flexible and conformable to virtually any surface. The university team are combining their expertise in polymer artificial muscle, rapid prototyping/alternative micro-fabrication, low-power electronics, signal processing and haptics with the low power electronics, mobile device and medical device know-how of the partner to create new approaches and possibilities in human-device interaction.

该项目的目的是通过创建三种技术来扩展我们与电子设备交互的方式：（1）由于离子运动而产生电信号的透明和可拉伸的触摸敏感膜，（2）可拉伸和透明的电容式接近传感器和（3）薄，可弯曲的触觉反馈显示器，旨在提供局部振动或纹理反馈。这些界面将是薄膜，柔软，柔性和适应几乎任何表面。该大学团队将其在聚合物人工肌肉、快速原型/替代微制造、低功耗电子、信号处理和触觉方面的专业知识与合作伙伴的低功耗电子、移动终端和医疗设备专业知识相结合，以创造人机交互的新方法和可能性。
