Triboelectric touch sensor for position mapping during total hip arthroplasty

Blog Article

Abstract Objective In this research, a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) was utilized to determine if a pressure-based sensor could detect bearing friction in a total hip arthroplasty (THA) and detect the contact of specific areas during ROM checks.Results The pressure-based sensor shows capability to sense bearing Hen friction.In more detail, the TENG embedded in four different sides of the trial exhibits up to 1 V from peak-to-peak.Moreover, these flexible Decorative Plaques touch sensors with TENG describes a peak signal in output voltage which should lead to extremely sensitive detection of bearing friction induced by the THA.
