A force sensing device comprises a sensing array comprising a first conductive layer having a plurality of conductive rows and a second conductive layer having a plurality of conductive columns. The plurality of conductive rows and plurality of conductive columns are arranged to define a plurality of intersections. The force sensing device also comprises an electro-active layer overlaying the first conductive layer and comprising a pressure sensitive element at each intersection. A force concentrating structure is positioned at each intersection on the second conductive layer.

Force sensing device

A flexible sensor () comprises a first conductive layer () and a second conductive layer (). The first conductive layer and the second conductive layer define a sensing region () for determining an interaction, such as a mechanical interaction. The first conductive layer comprises a first substrate () having a plurality of conductive rows () printed thereon and the second conductive layer comprises a second substratehaving a plurality of columns () printed thereon. The first conductive layer and the second conductive layer are constrained by a constraining means () which holds the two layers together but permits movement of the layers perpendicular to each other in the sensing region.
