Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adhm201400761-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Conductive tattoo nanosheets</bold> are fabricated on top of decal transfer paper and transferred on target surfaces as temporary transfer tattoos. Circuits are patterned with ink‐jet printing. Tattoo nanosheets are envisioned as unperceivable human–device interfaces because of conformal adhesion to complex surfaces including skin. They are tested as dry electrodes for surface electromyography (sEMG), which permits the control of a robotic hand. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgjn22rz7r" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
