Touch sensor

New and super flexible touch screen makes devices bend and stretch

It’s still hard to digest the existence of flexible displays. A touch sensor created by the team of researchers at the University of British Columbia can make us more familiar with flexible displays of the future.

Mirza Saquib Sarwar is a Ph.D. student who has been working on this research. He says their work combines the capabilities of pressure detection sensors like Apple’s 3D Touch, hover detection sensors like Samsung’s AirView, and sensors that are foldable, stretchable, and transparent.
