"FHE" is a system architecture that integrates flexibility, allowing for free shape changes, and complexity by merging printing and semiconductors. This system first detects changes in temperature and pressure in the real world using flexible printed sensors, which transmit the weak signals through printed wiring. Then, a small silicon LSI mounted on the film processes and records the signals. The true value lies in the ability to integrate a series of functions—measuring, transmitting, and judging—within a single sheet of film.
