Abstract :
A wireless MEMS force/pressure/temperature sensor was utilized in the collection of data from a study involving a strap support system to be used in conjunction with human subjects. Both static and dynamic data were collected to demonstrate the efficacy of the sensor described herein. The wireless property and ability to place the sensor at arbitrary points provides great utility for the application of such a MEMS apparatus
