Flexible Temperature Sensors on Fibers
Open accessAbstract
The aim of this paper is to present research dedicated to the elaboration of novel, miniaturized flexible temperature sensors for textronic applications. Examined sensors were manufactured on a single yarn, which ensures their high flexibility and good compatibility with textiles. Stable and linear characteristics were obtained by special technological process and applied temperature profiles. As a thermo-sensitive materials the innovative polymer compositions filled with multiwalled carbon nanotubes were used. Elaborated material was adapted to printing and dip-coating techniques to produce NTC composites. Nanotube sensors were free from tensometric effect typical for other carbon-polymer sensor, and demonstrated TCR of 0.13%/K. Obtained temperature sensors, compatible with textile structure, can be applied in rapidly developing smart textiles and be used for health and protections purposes.

Piezoresistive pressure sensors were knitted in a sock to wirelessly measure gate and plantar pressure up to 500 kPa.
“In one such study, piezoresistive pressure sensors were knitted in a sock to wirelessly measure gate and plantar pressure up to 500 kPa.43”
From Wearables in Medicine (2018) · cites this paper as [43]
The Abstract and Conclusions identify this study as developing temperature sensors on single yarns to monitor skin temperature. They describe a different device from the claimed piezoresistive pressure-sensing sock; the paper does not report wireless gait or plantar-pressure measurements up to 500 kPa. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredElectronic socks have also been developed to monitor vital functions in the body.
“Electronic socks have also been developed to monitor vital functions in the body.”
From Wearables in Medicine (2018) · cites this paper as [43]
The “Flexible Sensors in Textile Applications” section says smart textiles use electronic sensors for bio-parameter monitoring, and the Conclusions report yarn-based temperature sensors that could be integrated into garments. Neither section says electronic socks have been developed, so the specific garment in the claim is unsupported. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe data allowed evaluating running and walking modes of asymptomatic and flat foot.
“The data allowed evaluating running and walking modes of asymptomatic and flat foot.”
From Wearables in Medicine (2018) · cites this paper as [43]
The paper’s Conclusions describe yarn-based sensors for measuring human skin temperature, not data evaluating running or walking in people with asymptomatic or flat feet. Searches for the claim’s wording and for flat-foot gait and plantar pressure found no passage addressing that comparison. (LLM, conf=0.76)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

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.
