Abstract:
The disclosed apparatus may include (1) a deformable material that is dimensioned to conform to a body part of a user and configured to stretch in at least one direction, (2) a transducer coupled to the deformable material, (3) a conduit that extends along the deformable material in the at least one direction and that couples the transducer to a control system, and (4) stitching in the deformable material that restricts the deformable material from stretching farther than the conduit is configured to extend. Various other systems and methods are also disclosed.
