Abstract

See full text

The disclosure relates to a sensor which is produced by stitching it onto a carrier using threads. The stitching forms a first electrode, a second electrode and a covering layer. The covering layer can be used to produce an electrically conductive connection between the first electrode and the second electrode, at least if a force acts on the covering layer and presses at least one part of the covering layer against a part of the first electrode and of the second electrode. This force can be caused by a pressure locally exerted on the covering layer and/or by bending of the covering layer or of the carrier. The entire sensor and, in particular, the first electrode, the second electrode and the covering layer are produced solely by being stitched onto a common carrier. The sensor can be produced in a particularly simple and cost-effective manner and is robust.
