Abstract
In this paper we describe free-standing electrically conductive and mechanically flexible materials that may be used to determine the distributed strain, shape and deformation of surfaces. The materials are formed by an electrostatic self-assembly process that allows the incorporation of multiple functionalities and the design of strain-dependent electrical resistance.
