Claim 16:
17. The method of claim 16, wherein during the step of “applying, to the pre-stretched EAP sublayer, a solution comprising a flexible conductive material,” the solution comprising the flexible conductive material is deposited onto the pre-stretched EAP sublayer according to a predetermined mask pattern, so that a shape of the stretchable conductive sublayer conforms to a shape of the predetermined mask pattern, wherein the predetermined mask pattern comprises:
a series of latitudinally oriented sections;
a plurality of longitudinal portions;
wherein each longitudinal portion of the plurality of longitudinal portions connects each latitudinally oriented section of the series of latitudinally oriented sections to an adjacent latitudinally oriented section of the series of latitudinally oriented sections;
wherein each longitudinal portion of the plurality of longitudinal portions is integral with each latitudinally oriented section of the series of latitudinally oriented sections;
wherein each longitudinal portion of the plurality of longitudinal portions has a width that is less than a width of each latitudinally oriented section of the series of latitudinally oriented sections, such that a plurality of latitudinally oriented spaces are formed between each latitudinally oriented section of the series of latitudinally oriented sections.
