Abstract

An MFR sensor array having a first supporting layer. The array has a second supporting layer. The array has a force sensing component disposed between the first and second supporting layers. The array has protrusions combined with the force supporting component, where there are only two supporting layers. When a force is applied to the second supporting layer, the force causes the second supporting layer to contact protrusions so the force is transmitted through the protrusions to the force supporting component and through the force supporting component. An MFR sensor array. A system for sensing. A method for sensing.
