Abstract
This paper presents research on flat textile pressure sensor characteristics that are advantageous for use in the surgical environment. Eight, 4 by 4 textile pressure matrices were subjected to sensor error testing to evaluate the sensor output differences on foam vs. no foam. The pressure matrices were tested using a compression tester while monitoring the voltage output. The errors analysed included the span, sensitivity, and nonlinearity. The findings show that for use in the surgical environment, prototypes two and three demonstrate better performances in the tests on foam, and both prototypes exhibit properties that are more suited for the surgical environment and warrant further prototype development.
