“…The low cost and ease of processing the polymer (compared with ceramics) have also led to its wide use as a piezoelectric material. The PVDF or its copolymers have been used in a large number of tactile sensing schemes (27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44)(45). A detailed description of the piezoelectric effect is given in the following sections.…”

“Smart materials” such as piezoelectrics are important class of materials needed to execute sophisticated functions in many applications. These materials are distinguished by their ability to react actively to changing stimuli as a result of converting mechanical to electrical energy and vice versa. This article focuses on the piezoelectric material‐based tactile sensors. The article begins by discussing why piezoelectric transduction is important for tactile sensing. A brief overview of some historical milestones, such as the discovery of the piezoelectric effect and the utilization of piezoelectric materials in various applications, has been presented. The piezoelectric effect has been explained with basic mathematical formulations based on the intermingling of electric and elastic phenomena. A simple explanation of the piezoelectric phenomenon has been presented to help understand how this phenomenon is exploited in various piezoelectric material‐based sensors. Finally, some examples of piezoelectric tactile sensors are presented.

“…However the sensors have low sensitivity. A screen printed pressure sensor array with poly (vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) P(VDF-TrFE) sandwiched between patterned metal layers was demonstrated in [29], but P(VDF-TrFE) is too expensive to be used in low cost applications. Screen-printed resistive pressure sensors containing graphene nanoplatelets and carbon nanotubes were presented in [30].…”

“…Similarly, the piezoresistive property of MWCNTs matrix in PDMS has been exploited to detect static events such as the contact force while holding an object [6]. Our work on pressure sensors based in these materials was presented in ASMC 2014 conference [7]. Extending the research further, we present in this paper the touch or pressure sensors made of P(VDF-TrFE)-MWCNTs composites.…”

“…Further, printing of sensors is a low-cost approach. In this regard printed electronics route is appealing and the screen-printing is most attractive alternatives as it is closer to the manufacturing [7,16,17]. The simple processing steps, fast production of sensors, and uniform deposition of materials over large areas make screen-printing an attractive additive manufacturing method [18,19].…”
