Optimized connections for tattoo skin-contact electrodes toward real use in health monitoring: new publication in Sensors

A new open access paper by S. Taccola et al. about skin-contact Temporary Tattoo Electrodes (TTEs). The study is part of a collaboration of our former group at CMBR IIT – Italian Institute of Technology, Pontedera (Italy) with the company MEDEL Gmbh, Innsbruck (Austria). The study investigates skin-contact tattoo electrodes in various bio-electric signals recording applications, such as bioimpedance for respiration monitoring. Novel methods for realizing  a repositionable, long-term stable and robust interconnection of TTEs with external “docking” devices are presented. A further step forward toward the real use of our tattoo interfaces in health monitoring!
