12. Skin Electronics

Research

Skin electronics, also known as electronic skin or e-skin, refers to flexible and stretchable electronic devices that can be attached to the skin like a temporary tattoo. These devices can sense various physical and biological signals from the body, such as temperature, heart rate, muscle activity, and even emotions. They can also provide feedback to the user, such as vibrations or electrical stimulation. skin electronics, with their flexible and adaptable nature, can be used to enhance facial appearance for both genders by incorporating features such as customizable lighting effects or real-time biometric displays. alt text

footnote fabrication files

Fabrication files are a necessary element for evaluation. You can add the fabrication files at the bottom of the page and simply link them as a footnote. This was your work stays organised and files will be all together at the bottom of the page. Footnotes are created using [ ^ 1 ] (without spaces, and referenced as you see at the last chapter of this page) You can reference the fabrication files to multiple places on your page as you see for footnote nr. 2 also present in the Gallery.

Code Example

Use the three backticks to separate code.

// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
  // initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
  pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
}

// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);   // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);    // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
}
