Patent ID: 8661915

Claim:
A method of making a force sensor array comprising; a. providing a plurality of row threads, each of said row threads being elongated, elastically stretchable, and electrically conductive; b. providing a plurality of column threads, each of said column threads being elongated, elastically stretchable, and electrically conductive; c. providing a sheet of elastically stretchable material; d. bathing said sheet of elastically stretchable material with a piezoresistive material to form a piezoresistive coating thereon; e. coating one of a P-type and N-type semiconductor onto a surface of said sheet of elastically stretchable material; f. coupling said plurality of row threads to a first substrate sheet; g. coupling said plurality of column threads to a second substrate sheet; and h. sandwiching said sheet of elastically stretchable material between said first and second substrate sheets.
