Innovative Advanced Materials for flexible and stretchable electronics
Funds around three research projects, each worth up to EUR 5 million, to develop new materials for wearable and flexible electronics.
This Research and Innovation Action funds discovery of new advanced materials that make electronic devices flexible, conformable or stretchable, for uses such as wearables, e-textiles, e-skin and wellbeing devices, where most current products still rely on rigid circuitry around a few flexible sensors. Proposals should address most of four challenges: wearer discomfort that limits adoption, the en…
The Commission wants research into new advanced materials that make electronic devices flexible, conformable or stretchable, for uses such as wearables, e-textiles and e-skin. Proposals should target materials with a low environmental footprint that can be repaired or recycled at end of life.
