Rendl, Christian, Greindl, Patrick, Haller, Michael, Zirkl, Martin, Stadlober, Barbara and Hartmann, Paul (2012): PyzoFlex: printed piezoelectric pressure sensing foil. In: Proceedings of the 2012 ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology 2012. pp. 509-518.

“Ferroelectric material supports both pyro- and piezoelectric effects that can be used for sensing pressures on large, bended surfaces. We present PyzoFlex, a pressure-sensing input device that is based on a ferroelectric material. It is constructed with a sandwich structure of four layers that can be printed easily on any material. We use this material in combination with a high-resolution Anoto-sensing foil to support both hand and pen input tracking. The foil is bendable, energy-efficient, and it can be produced in a printing process. Even a hovering mode is feasible due to its pyroelectric effect. In this paper, we introduce this novel input technology and discuss its benefits and limitations.”
