Flexible wearable devices and E-Textile

The growing interest in wearable devices has highlighted the need to develop highly deformable sensors capable of mimicking human tactile perception or creating smart textiles for a wide range of applications. These devices integrate sensing units, energy systems, and electronics to create intelligent wearable products. Our group focuses on developing deformable sensors for detecting multiple physical, biological, and chemical parameters, leveraging expertise in materials and nanotechnologies to enhance functionality and sustainability. We also work on integrating energy harvesting and storage devices, enabling the development of self-powered flexible wearable devices.

We firmly believe that one of the Group’s strengths lies in the transdisciplinary approach that stems from active collaboration between experts from different fields, crucial for achieving results in both research and technological transfer.
