    Are we missing some zeros here? So one to a few hours of testing, that is it? So I assume the sensors simply failed completely after that, why else would they not test it longer or withhold the results? Quote:

    Researchers tested them at different bending speeds:

    838.9 mV at 100 bends/hour 856.7 mV at 200 bends/hour 852.6 mV at 400 bends/hour

    Even after hundreds of cycles, the signal stayed strong, proving these sensors can handle repetitive movement without breaking down.

    This kind of reliability is huge for prosthetic limbs, fitness trackers, and robotic arms, where precision and durability are non-negotiable.

      Thanks, AI slop! Sensors that have been durability tested for a few hundred cycles will be perfect for prosthetic devices that can do that in half a day of office work, or fitness trackers that can do that in five minutes, or in robotic arms that can perform that kind of movement in 60 seconds! I’m going to use them in my next safety critical robotics project for sure!
