Abstract

This paper deals with the prototyping and a preliminary characterization of an InkJet-Printed inclinometer. The developed sensor consists of a thin flexible beam, clamped to a rigid support, with a printed strain gauge to exploit the resistive readout strategy. The voltage at the output of a Wheatstone bridge circuit, where the printed strain gauge is connected, reflects the tilt to be measured. Advantages of the proposed approach are mainly related to the adopted low cost direct printing technology, which allows for the realization of cheap and customizable devices.
