Abstract

We provide an overview on our recent work on embedded printed transducers. This includes the description of appropriate technologies as well as technological considerations for the integration of sensors and actuators into polymer coatings, e.g., of sheet metal. In particular, the integration of capacitive large area sensors, piezo- and pyroelectric layers, and strain gauges is discussed. The devised concept has the potential to introduce additional functionality to a variety of products without the need of significant changes to associated production processes.
