Abstract
This chapter gives the conclusion of the work done on the fabrication and implementation of printed flexible sensors for different applications. It also showcases the challenges faced by the current sensors along with some of the remedial solutions for them. It also explains some of the possible uses of the developed sensors along with the market survey for the MEMS-based and printed flexible sensors for the upcoming years.
