University of Tokyo and others develop ultra-flexible sensor
December 26, 2018, Tokyo, Japan - This picture taken on December 26, 2018 shows Lee Sunghoon, a researcher of Tokyo University professor Takao Someya's laboratory showing the ultrasoft electronics sensors to monitor beating heart cells using ultra thin and flexible polyurethane made mesh structure sheet and nano sized gold sensor probes at Someya's laboratory in the University in Tokyo. Tokyo University and Tokyo Women's Medical University produced a functional sample of heart cells with a soft nanomesh sensor to study of organs and medicines. It paves the way for the development of embedded medical devices. (Photo by Yoshio Tsunoda/AFLO) LWX -ytd- (Embargo removed on January 1, 2019)
