Abstract
This paper proposes a new sensor for the moisture measurement on the surface of the skin. The proposed sensor measures the voltage generated by which the stainless steel film was contacted and released the skin. The moisture condition of the skin was obtained from the voltage. In the experiment, the moisture at the skin of forearm was measured by using the proposed and commercial sensors and their measured values were compared. In addition, the measurement values by the proposed and commercial sensors at two types of skin models were compared. As a result, it was shown that measurement of moisture on the surface of the skin is possible by the proposed sensor.
