Flexible-foam-based capacitive sensor arrays for object detection at low cost
Abstract
Polymer foams are used in the automotive and construction industries for thermal insulation, vibration attenuation, and pressure absorption, due to their lightweight structure, thermal characteristics and low manufacturing costs. These foams have higher elasticity in their cross sections than bulk polymers, which makes them the preferred mount for capacitive sensor arrays. The authors describe a flexible pressure-sensitive surface mounted on packaging foam. The elastic properties of the foam are presented along with the sensor array’s weight sensitivity. The authors illustrate an inventory management application where objects on display can be detected through their weights.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
