Technique prints flexible circuits on curved surfaces, from contact lenses to latex gloves

"smart contact lens built-in circuits... measure the fluid pressure of the eye—which is relevant for some biomedical applications. One was a flexible, transparent electrode with circuits printed in a grid pattern, which could be used in solar cells or on touch panels. The third is a latex glove that has circuits printed on it that serve as pressure sensors, which has applications in robotics and human-machine interface applications. We think this could be scaled up pretty easily, in terms of manufacturing"
