Abstract: A pressure detection module and an electronic device are provided. The pressure detection module is disposed between a support and an inner surface of a housing of the electronic device. The pressure detection module includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a controller. The first electrode is fixed to an inner surface of a force input region of the housing, the second electrode is fixed to the support, and the second electrode is disposed opposite to the first electrode. The force input region of the housing is configured to drive the first electrode to move towards the second electrode based on a received external pressure. The controller is configured to determine a pressure detection result of the external pressure based on a capacitance change between the first electrode and the second electrode. The pressure detection module occupies small space in the electronic device, and is easy to mount.

Abstract: A wearable electronic device includes a body, a housing component, a band operable to attach the body to a body part of a user, and a force sensor coupled to the housing component.
The force sensor is operable to produce a force signal based on a force exerted between the body part of the user and the housing component. A processing unit of the wearable electronic device receives the force signal from the force sensor and determines the force exerted on the housing component based thereon. The processing unit may use that force to determine a tightness of the band, determine health information for the user, adjust determined force exerted on a cover glass, and/or to perform various other actions.-

Abstract: A load sensor includes: an electrically-conductive elastic body; an electrically-conductive member having a linear shape and disposed so as to cross the electrically-conductive elastic body; and a dielectric body disposed between the electrically-conductive elastic body and the electrically-conductive member. A width of the electrically-conductive elastic body in a longitudinal direction of the electrically-conductive member is changed such that a relationship between a load and a contact area between the electrically-conductive elastic body and the electrically-conductive member via the dielectric body becomes close to a linear relationship.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include systems and methods for additively manufacturing (e.g., by “printing” or the like) a bend sensor as a 2D structure that can then be configured into a 3D or stacked structure. Further disclosed embodiments include bend sensors with foldable sensing regions configurable into a 3D or stacked structure. A differential strain in a sensing region is linearly proportional to the displacement as measured from the endpoints of the sensing region. The differential strain is measurable as a differential change in the capacitance of the sensing regions.
