RESEARCH REGARDING PROTOTYPE OF AN ELECTRONIC HYBRID POLYMER STRUCTURE

Beniamin-Constantin VĂLIMĂREANU, Constantin Gheorghe OPRAN

Abstract


An electronic hybrid polymer structure enables the creation of devices and interfaces that are not only visually appealing but also lightweight, durable, and highly efficient. By minimizing the number of moving components, this technology can lower production, assembly, and maintenance costs while also reducing the likelihood of malfunctions or failures. This paper presents research regarding a product from the automotive industry, a structure that makes possible an easy communication between the human and the machine with a low-cost of fabrication. This research product with automotive applied has an electric layer that makes possible communication by a simple touch. The original contribution in this work consists in obtaining a polymeric product with electronic hybrid structure and manufacturing the prototype by additive manufacturing. An electronic circuit with touch sensors will be presented to make sure that the material or thickness will not affect the main function of the product.
