“…Over the past seven decades, significant advancements have been made in the study of multiaxis force sensors. These sensors have been extensively applied under various requirements and conditions, with prevalent sensitive element technologies encompassing resistive strain measurement [54,55], optical strain measurement [56], semiconductor strain gauges [57], and capacitive induction [58]. Depending on their structural design, multiaxis force sensors can be classified into 3-DOF force sensors [59,60], 6-DOF sensors [61], column-type force sensors [61], beam-column-type force sensors [62], and Stewart platform force sensors [63].…”

“…This sensor is used due to its simple design and reading method. It allows force variations to be transduced into easily detectable changes in resistance [48][49][50][51][52]. Changing the path of conductance in an elastic composite and changes in contact resistance are common methods for determining resistance dependence for force-sensitive sensors.…”

During pregnancy, it is important to monitor the health of the fetus and fetal movement count is one of the key parameters that can be used to check the health of the fetus. Consequently, there is growing interest in developing non-invasive passive methods for fetal monitoring techniques that can be used outside of clinical settings. This study introduces a home-use system based on electrical resistance tomography (ERT) that pregnant mothers can utilize for fetus monitoring. The setup utilizes a conductive fabric, functioning as electronic skin (e-skin), positioned on the mother's abdomen to detect alterations in the fabric's electrical characteristics caused by fetal movements. This method is validated through both numerical simulations and experimental investigations, which assess conductivity changes on the fabric's surface in reaction to localized pressure fluctuations, mimicking fetal motions.
