Electronic systems that can withstand high-strain deformations are of growing importance, because of their ability to make possible biomedical devices and other applications, difficult to develop with conventional technologies. A new mechanical design can be used to build stretchable electronics that function during stretching, compression, bending, twisting and other types of extreme mechanical deformation, without a reduction in electronic performance.
