Sensor-integrated actuator haptic device and its manufacturing method

Haptic device technology integrating sensors and actuators on a single plane

This technology pertains to sensor-integrated actuator haptic devices and their manufacturing method. Specifically, it is a haptic device technology that integrates both sensors and actuators on a single plane.

Existing technologies faced limitations in conventional haptic feedback devices, such as cost, complexity, and durability, which necessitated integrating sensors and actuators into a single unit. This technology addresses these issues by proposing a configuration that includes sensors and actuators, comprising a lower electrode, an ionic elastomer layer, and an upper electrode, all arranged on the same plane.

Consequently, this technology can enhance the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of haptic feedback devices by integrating sensors and actuators into a single unit. It offers significant value for applications in electronics, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials.
