Researchers have created multi-sensor artificial skin that's capable of sensing pressure, temperature, humidity, proximity, pH, and air flow.
About Skin
Skin types can range from oily to dry, extreme dryness accompanied by rashes and itching can often denote the presence of a skin problem or skin disorder.

‘Using household items, researchers have created multi-sensor artificial skin that is capable of sensing pressure, temperature, humidity, proximity, pH, and air flow.’
Prof. Muhammad Mustafa Hussain, senior author of the Advanced Materials Technologies paper, said, "Democratization of electronics will be key in the future for its continued growth. In that regard, a skin-type sensory platform made with recyclable materials only demonstrates the power of human imagination. This is the first time a singular platform shows multi-sensory functionalities close to that of natural skin. Additionally they are being read or monitored simultaneously like our own skin."
