Title: Mariko Omori: Inventor of a Practical Sensing Fiber
Introduction
Mariko Omori is an inventor associated with Osaka, Japan. Her work includes a sensing fiber designed to combine practical manufacturing, flexibility, and lower cost.
Latest Patents
Omori is named on 1 patent, titled “Sensing fiber member.” The invention uses at least two covered yarns, each made by wrapping insulating fiber around a linear conductor. Placed close together, the conductors enable sensing through changes in resistance and/or capacitance between them. The design is intended to support long-length processing and mass production while remaining supple, comfortable in texture, and less costly than conventional contact-sensing fibers made with piezoelectric materials.
Career Highlights
Omori’s listed professional affiliations include the Osaka Research Institute of Industrial Science and Technology and Asahi Kasei Advance Corporation. Her patent reflects an effort to develop sensing technology that can be manufactured efficiently and incorporated into flexible fiber products.
Collaborations
Shigeru Morita and Kansei Yoshimura are listed as Omori’s coworkers.
Conclusion
Mariko Omori’s sensing-fiber invention brings together conductive yarn construction and resistance- or capacitance-based sensing, with an emphasis on scalable production, flexibility, and affordability.
