Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A pressure and shear force measurement device and a pressure and shear force measurement method are disclosed. The measurement device includes a flexible substrate; a plurality of signal outputting units embedded in the flexible substrate for outputting signals; and a plurality of signal detectors disposed at a peripheral of the flexible substrate for receiving at least a signal outputted from the signal outputting units, wherein when the flexible substrate has a load applied thereon and each of the signal outputting units has a displacement, each of the signal detectors detects a pressure and a shear force resulting from the load on the flexible substrate based on the signal received from the signal outputting units.
