With the advent of human–machine interaction and the Internet of Things, wearable and flexible vibration sensors have been developed to detect human voices and surrounding vibrations transmitted to humans. However, previous wearable vibration sensors have limitations in the sensing performance, such as frequency response, linearity of sensitivity, and esthetics. In this study, a transparent and flexible vibration sensor was developed by incorporating organic/inorganic hybrid materials into ultrathin membranes. The sensor exhibited a linear and high sensitivity (20 mV/g) and a flat frequency response (80–3000 Hz), which are attributed to the wheel-shaped capacitive diaphragm structure fabricated by exploiting the high processability and low stiffness of the organic material SU-8 and the high conductivity of the inorganic material ITO. The sensor also has sufficient esthetics as a wearable device because of the high transparency of SU-8 and ITO. In addition, the temperature of the post-annealing process after ITO sputtering was optimized for the high transparency and conductivity. The fabricated sensor showed significant potential for use in transparent healthcare devices to monitor the vibrations transmitted from hand-held vibration tools and in a skin-attachable vocal sensor.

In order to establish monitoring systems for micro vibration due to electric spark occurs in the faulty cable, a novel acceleration sensing structure utilizing the piezoresistive principle is presented. The mechanical model and its mathematical solution are established, which have been developed in order to calculate the sensitivity and frequency behaviour of an acceleration sensor. The sensor is built up as a sense beam and a supplement beam is supposed to have high sensitivity, low resonant frequency and minimized lateral effect. For the designed sensor structure, the formula of stress, natural frequency and damping was derived in theory, and the optimized structure is confirmed through adjust the beams size.
