We introduce a pairing of a previously unidentified 3D printing technique and soft materials in order to achieve not only high-resolution printed features and flexibility of the 3D-printed materials but also its light-weight and electrical conductivity. On-demand personalized wearable sensors made of the 3D-printed soft and conductive materials were fabricated. These sensors successfully detected both actively changing body strain signals and passively changing signals such as EMG (electromyography), EDA (electrodermal activity) and EEG (electroencephalogram). The accurately tailored subject-specific shape of the developed sensors exhibited higher sensitivity and faster real-time sensing performances in the monitoring of rapidly changing human body signals.
