A thin layer of silicone is arranged between two polymer waveguide layers and the amount of crosstalk detected indicates the pressure applied. in the absence of any pressure, there is no leakage between the layers. This makes for a potentially very cheap pressure sensor. The ultimate aim of the researchers is to make a stretchable skin which is sensitive to pressure, touch and deformation.

Jonathen,
I attended your healthcare lecture last Thursday, and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. As a student of presentation style, I must congratulate you on a great "sticky" presentation, with just the right blend of multimedia. I can still remember much of the content.
I was also intrigued by your mobile phone demo, and would very much like to find out more about the software you were using to control the computer.
Thank you for the many thought provoking ideas. Hope to hear you speak again soon.
Dave
