Flexible electronics—from stretchable circuit boards to bendable, plastic chips—can contort to fit the contours of any product. Such flexibility is ushering in new form factors for wearable medical devices to sensors that can be slapped on anything and everything. However, the biggest advantage of flexible electronics can also be a drawback, bringing increased costs and complexities to design engineers who are accustomed to unbending circuit boards and rigid silicon chips.
What do engineers need to know about navigating the technical challenges that come with all of that flexibility, which can impact everything from performance to reliability, safety, and durability? This panel session will cover these topics and more to give engineers a better sense of the current state-of-the-art in flexible electronics and what opportunities lie ahead.
