Abstract

A pressure-sensor matrix (PSM) with full dynamic range can accurately detect and spatially map pressure profiles. A 100 × 100 large-scale PSM gives both electrical and optical signals by itself without applying an external power source. The device represents a major step toward digital imaging, and the visible display of the pressure distribution covers a large dynamic range.
