Sensor Array Spanning Multiple Radial Quadrants to Measure Body Joint Movement

This invention describes a system to measure how a body joint moves. It uses four flexible sensors, each placed in a different radial section around the joint, that bend or stretch as the joint moves. By tracking these changes, the system can determine the joint's movement.

Why it matters: Since 2016, advancements in flexible and stretchable electronic sensors have made integrating such arrays into wearables more practical and comfortable. This improves the feasibility of building and deploying the claimed sensor system for applications like virtual reality or medical monitoring.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
