In contrast, natively flexible electronic devices use substrates such as paper, metal foil or as is the case with PlasticARM - plastic. Thin-film transistors (TFTs) are grafted on top of that substrate, resulting in truly flexible chips. PlasticARMIt is important to note that PlasticARM is an actual, fully-functional proof of concept, created by ARM. In simpler terms, this is a fully functional 32-bit ARM chipset. Things like smart clothing with sensors, smart containers, like packaging that can measure and determine if food is still good.
