The first induction unit includes m rotating multi-segment resistance wires arranged around the center of a circle O of a circular deformation area of the flat diaphragm, m/2 rotating multi-segment resistance wires on one side are connected in series to form a second induction resistor R2, and m/2 rotating multi-segment resistance wires on the other side are connected in series to form a fourth induction resistor R4, where m is a multiple of 4. As shown in FIG. 2A, as an alternative embodiment, in this embodiment, the value of m is 12, and there are 12 rotating multi-segment resistance wires, in which six rotating multi-segment resistance wires (S.sub.1 to S.sub.6) on one side are connected in series to form a second induction resistor R2 (the terminals of which are R.sub.2_1 and R.sub.2_2, respectively), and six rotating multi-segment resistance wires (S.sub.7 to S.sub.12) on the other side are connected in series to form a fourth induction resistor R4 (the terminals of which are R.sub.4_1 and R.sub.4_2, respectively). In addition, the value of m can also be selected as other multiples of 4. FIG. 2B is an analytical diagram of FIG. 2A, marking the specific positions of rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1, S.sub.2 and S.sub.3 in the first induction unit, and marking the transition arcs T.sub.i and T.sub.e used for connecting S.sub.1, S.sub.2 and S.sub.3 in series. It should be noted that a single rotating multi-segment resistance wire (such as S.sub.1) is a multi-segment wire that diverges outward from the center and has a slight rotation. Microscopically, the resistance wire is formed by many line segments connected end to end, which is essentially a multi-segment wire. However, the length of each line segment is very small, the resistance wire looks smooth macroscopically.

As shown in FIG. 2A, as an alternative embodiment, in this embodiment, the rotating direction of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires is counterclockwise, and the clockwise direction can also be selected as required.

[0072] As shown in FIG. 3A, as an alternative embodiment, the rotating multi-segment resistance wire is formed by a plurality of linear resistance wires connected in series in sequence, and the angle θ of the linear resistance wire, far from the center of the circle O, of two adjacent linear resistance wires relative to the positive direction of the X axis satisfies the following formula:

[0074] With the above structure, according to the mechanical characteristics of the elastomer diaphragm under pressure, the thin-film resistors are arranged along the composite direction of the elastomer diaphragm strain, the deformation of the elastomer diaphragm is utilized to the maximum extent, and the sensitivity of the sensor is improved. As shown in FIG. 3A, L.sub.1 and L.sub.2 are two adjacent linear resistance wires in rotating multi-segment resistance wires, L.sub.1 is a linear resistance wire close to the center of the circle O, L.sub.2 is a linear resistance wire far from the center of the circle O, and the angle θ of the linear resistance wire L.sub.2 far from the center of the circle O relative to the positive direction of the X axis is shown in FIG. 3A. The angle θ is provided, so that the strains on two sides of the linear resistance wire of the rotating multi-segment resistance wires are equal, which will not twist the resistance wire and will facilitate the long-term stable combination of the resistance wire and the substrate. FIG. 3B is a schematic diagram of a microstructure of a rotating multi-segment resistance wire S1 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, and shows in detail how a plurality of linear resistance wires are connected end to end to form the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1. L.sub.1, L.sub.2 and L.sub.3 are linear resistance wires, point Q.sub.v is the intersection of L.sub.1 and L.sub.2, point Q.sub.v+1 is the intersection of L.sub.2 and L.sub.3, θ.sub.v is the included angle between L.sub.2 and X axis, θ+1 is the included angle between L.sub.3 and X axis, Y.sub.j and Y.sub.q are the radial strain and the tangential strain at point Q.sub.v, Y.sub.y and Y.sub.x are the Y-axis component and X-axis component of the composite vector of both Y.sub.j and Y.sub.q, respectively, and θ.sub.v satisfies θ.sub.v=arctan(Y.sub.y/Y.sub.x).

[0075] It should be noted that when m/2 rotating multi-segment resistance wires on one side are connected in series to form the second induction resistor R2, and m/2 rotating multi-segment resistance wires on the other side are connected in series to form the fourth induction resistor R4, the resistance wires may be connected by a straight line, an arc line or other forms of wires as required. As shown in FIG. 2B, as an alternative embodiment, in order to improve the detection sensitivity of the thin-film pressure sensor, as well as the surge resistance and dynamic signal perception ability, in this embodiment, adjacent rotating multi-segment resistance wires are connected by transition arcs. In order to make it distinguishable, the transition arc near the center of the circle O is marked as the center proximal transition arc, and the transition arc far from the center of the circle O is marked as the center distal transition arc. As shown in FIG. 2B, the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S1 and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S2 are connected by a center proximal transition arc T.sub.i, and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S2 and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S3 are connected by a center distal transition arc T.sub.e.

[0076] Further, as an alternative embodiment, in order to improve the detection sensitivity of the thin-film pressure sensor, in this embodiment, the flat diaphragm is further provided with a second induction unit in the shape of a thin film. As shown in FIG. 4, the second induction unit includes a first induction resistor R1 and a third induction resistor R3 symmetrically arranged outside the first induction unit around the center of the circle O, the first induction resistor R1 and the third induction resistor R3 both include n radial lines extending beyond the center of the circle O, the n radial lines are connected in series, the first induction resistor R1, the second induction resistor R2, the third induction resistor R3 and the fourth induction resistor R4 are sequentially connected end to end to form a Wheatstone bridge, and a wiring board is led out between any two adjacent resistors. Because the first induction resistor R1 and the third induction resistor R3 are symmetrically arranged outside the first induction unit and include n radial lines extending beyond the center of the circle O, the resistance wires have a negative radial strain and a positive tangential strain under the pressure, both of which make the resistance value smaller. The second induction resistor R2 and the fourth induction resistor R4 of the first induction unit are arranged on the inner side, and are wired along the composite direction of the radial strain and the tangential strain. The resistance wire has the maximum positive strain under the pressure. In this arrangement, the strains on both sides of the resistance wire are equal, which will not twist the resistance wire and will facilitate the long-term stable combination of the resistance wire and the flat diaphragm.

[0077] As shown in FIG. 4, as an alternative embodiment, in order to improve the detection sensitivity of the thin film pressure sensor, as well as the surge resistance and dynamic signal perception ability, in this embodiment, n radial lines are connected by transition arcs. In order to make it distinguishable, the transition arc near the center of the circle O is marked as the inner arc line, and the transition arc far from the center of the circle O is marked as the outer arc line.

[0078] As shown in FIG. 4, for the convenience of wiring, in this embodiment, any adjacent ones of the first induction resistor R1, the second induction resistor R2, the third induction resistor R3, and the fourth induction resistor R4 are led out of the wiring board through a lead bridge. As an alternative embodiment, in order to improve the detection sensitivity of the thin-film pressure sensor, as well as the surge resistance and the dynamic signal perception ability, in this embodiment, the joints of the first induction resistor R1, the second induction resistor R2, the third induction resistor R3, the fourth induction resistor R4 and the lead bridge are all provided with smooth transition sections. The lead bridge and a pad are connected by leads. All of the first induction resistor R1, the second induction resistor R2, the third induction resistor R3 and the fourth induction resistor R4 are basically thin-film resistor structures with equal width and thickness, and the local line width changes only at the connection with the lead bridge due to the smooth transition section.

[0079] The function expression for calculating of the radial strain ε.sub.r in the circular deformation region of the flat diaphragm is as follows:

ε.sub.r=3p(1−μ.sup.2)(R−3r.sup.2)/(8Eh.sup.2) (2)

[0080] where p is the intensity of pressure of a target position inside the deformation area, μ is the Poisson's ratio of the elastic material used in the flat diaphragm 1, R is the radius of a circular deformation area, r is the radius of a target position inside the deformation area relative to the center of circle O, E is the elastic modulus, and h is the thickness of the flat diaphragm 1. According to formula (2), the critical line of the radial strain of the flat diaphragm can be calculated, which satisfies:

R.sup.2−3r.sup.2=0 (3)

[0081] According to the above constraints, a circle with a radius r.sub.f=(√{square root over (3)}/3)R of the critical line can be obtained. In this embodiment, in this embodiment, the first induction resistor R1 and the third induction resistor R3 are arranged outside the critical line, the second induction resistor R2 and the fourth induction resistor R4 are arranged inside the critical line, and the first induction resistor R1 and the third induction resistor R3 are symmetrically distributed along the X axis.

[0082] In addition, this embodiment further provides an arrangement method of the thin film pressure sensor described above, as shown in FIG. 5, which includes the following steps of arranging a first induction unit:

[0083] A1) uniformly marking m points M.sub.1 to M.sub.m on an auxiliary circle R.sub.3 with the center of a circle O as the center, for any point M.sub.1 among the m points M.sub.1 to M.sub.m: initializing the list Listi corresponding to the point M.sub.1 to be empty, determining an endpoint Q.sub.i starting from the point M.sub.i, adding the position of the endpoint Q.sub.i to the list Listi, and calculating an angle θ of a composite vector of both a radial strain Y.sub.j and a tangential strain Y.sub.q at the endpoint Q.sub.i; where the update number U is 1;

[0084] A2) performing the U-th update: extending each endpoint Q.sub.i outward at an angle θ and a step size δ to obtain a new position and adding the position to the list Listi, calculating the angle θ of the composite vector of both the radial strain Y.sub.j and the tangential strain Y.sub.q at the endpoint Q.sub.i, calculating the length of a rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i formed by the trajectory of the endpoint Q.sub.i in the list Listi and the total length of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 to S.sub.m; if the update number U is equal to 2, arranging a center proximal transition arc between each pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires of the second induction resistor R2 and the fourth induction resistor R4 according to the first two positions of the endpoint Q.sub.i in the list Listi, and calculating the length of a center proximal transition arc, so as to determine the total length of m/2 center proximal transition arcs; judging whether the sum of the total length of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires and the total length of m/2 center proximal transition arcs is greater than or equal to 2×L2/m, where L2 is the designed total length of the second induction resistor R2 or the fourth induction resistor R4, if so, judging that the preliminary arrangement of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 to S.sub.m is completed, and jumping to step A3); otherwise, increasing the update number U by 1, and jumping to step A2) to continue the preliminary arrangement;

[0085] A3) arranging a center distal transition arc between each pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires of the second induction resistor R2 and the fourth induction resistor R4 according to the new position of each endpoint Q.sub.i, and calculating the length Ly of a center distal transition arc, so as to determine the total length of (m/2-2) center distal transition arcs;

[0086] A4) summing and dividing the total length of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 to S.sub.m, the total length of m/2 center proximal transition arcs and the total length of (m/2-2) center distal transition arcs by 2 to obtain the estimated total length L2′ of the second induction resistor R2 or the fourth induction resistor R4;

[0087] A5) comparing the designed total length L2 with the estimated total length L2′, if the designed total length L2 is greater than the estimated total length L2′, marking the comparison result B.sub.i as “>”, if the designed total length L2 is equal to the estimated total length L2′, marking the current comparison result B.sub.i as “=”, if the designed total length L2 is smaller than the estimated total length L2, marking the current comparison result B.sub.i as “<”; reading the previous comparison result B.sub.i-1, and if there is no previous comparison result B.sub.i-1, marking the comparison result as “None”:

[0088] A6) if the current comparison result B.sub.i is “>” and the previous comparison result B.sub.i-1 is “>” or “None”, returning each endpoint Q.sub.i by one step in the corresponding list Listi, reducing the update number U by one, and jumping to step A3); otherwise, jumping to the next step;

[0089] A7) if the current comparison result B.sub.i is “<” and the previous comparison result B.sub.i-i is “<” or “None”, increasing the update number U by 1, and jumping to step A2); otherwise, judging that the search of each endpoint Q.sub.i is completed, and completing the arrangement of the m rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 to S.sub.m.

[0090] The above steps A1) to A7) have the advantages of small calculation amount and high calculation efficiency, because there is no need to arrange and calculate the center distal transition arc before the sum of the total length of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires and the total length of m/2 center proximal transition arcs is greater than or equal to 2×L2/m. In addition, the method of arranging and calculating the center distal transition arc once every time the endpoint Q.sub.i is updated can also be adopted. The specific steps include:

[0091] A1′) uniformly marking m points M.sub.1 to M.sub.m on an auxiliary circle R.sub.3 with the center of a circle O as the center, for any point M.sub.i among the m points M.sub.1 to M.sub.m: initializing the list Listi corresponding to the point M.sub.1 to be empty, determining an endpoint Q.sub.i starting from the point M.sub.i, adding the position of the endpoint Q.sub.i to the list Listi, and calculating an angle θ of a composite vector of both a radial strain Y.sub.j and a tangential strain Y.sub.q at the endpoint Q.sub.i; where the update number U is 1;

[0092] A2′) performing the U-th update: extending each endpoint Q.sub.i outward at an angle θ and a step size δ to obtain a new position and adding the position to the list Listi, calculating the angle 9 of the composite vector of both the radial strain Y.sub.j and the tangential strain Y.sub.q at the endpoint Q.sub.i, and calculating the length of a rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i formed by the trajectory of the endpoint Q.sub.i in the list Listi and the total length of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 to S.sub.m;

[0095] A5′) comparing the designed total length L2 with the estimated total length L2′, if the designed total length L2 is greater than or equal to the estimated total length L2′, judging that the search of each endpoint Q.sub.i is completed, and completing the arrangement of the m rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 to S.sub.m; otherwise, increasing the update number U by 1, and jumping to step A2′).

[0096] In this embodiment, the step of calculating the angle θ of the composite vector of both the radial strain Y.sub.j and the tangential strain Y.sub.q at the endpoint Q.sub.i includes: calculating the radial strain Y.sub.j and the tangential strain Y.sub.q at the endpoint Q.sub.i, decomposing the radial strain Y.sub.j and the tangential strain Y.sub.q into components in two directions of x and y axes, respectively, and synthesizing the radial strain and the tangential strain to obtain an x-axis component Y.sub.x and a y-axis component Y.sub.y of a composite vector; where the function expressions for calculating the radial strain Y.sub.j and the tangential strain Y.sub.q at the endpoint Q.sub.i are as follows:

Y.sub.j=k(r.sub.1.sup.2−3Rq.sup.2) (4)

Y.sub.q=k(r.sub.1.sup.2−Rq.sup.2) (5)

[0097] where k is a material and process coefficient, r.sub.1 is the radius of the deformation area on the flat diaphragm, and Rq is the distance between the endpoint Q.sub.i and the center of the circle O; the function expressions for decomposing the radial strain Y.sub.j and the tangential strain Y.sub.q into components in two directions of x and y axes respectively are as follows:

[0098] where β is a polar angle of the endpoint Q.sub.i, Y.sub.j,x and Y.sub.j,y are the components of the radial strain Y.sub.j in two directions of x and y axes, respectively, and Y.sub.q,x and Y.sub.q,y are the components of the tangential strain Y.sub.q in two directions of x and y axes, respectively,

[0099] the function expressions for synthesizing the x-axis component Y.sub.x, the y-axis component Y.sub.y and the angle θ of the composite vector are as follows:

Y.sub.x=Y.sub.j,x+Y.sub.q,x=k(r.sub.1.sup.2−3Rq.sup.2)×cos(β)+k(r.sub.1.sup.2−Rq.sup.2)×sin(β) (10)

Y.sub.y=Y.sub.j,y+Y.sub.q,y=Y.sub.j,y=k(r.sub.1.sup.2−3Rq.sup.2)×sin(β)+k(r.sub.1.sup.2−Rq.sup.2)×cos(β) (11)

θ=arctan(Y.sub.y/Y.sub.x) (1)

[0100] where arctan is an arctangent function;

[0101] in step A2), the step of extending each endpoint Q.sub.i outward at an angle θ and a step size δ to obtain a new position includes: first, updating the x-axis coordinate Q.sub.x and y-axis coordinate Q.sub.y of the endpoint Q.sub.i according to the angle θ and the step size δ of the composite vector, and then calculating the polar coordinates of the new position of the endpoint Q.sub.i according to the updated x-axis coordinate Q.sub.x and y-axis coordinate Q.sub.y; where the function expressions for updating the x-axis coordinates Q.sub.x and the y-axis coordinates Q.sub.y of the endpoint Q.sub.i are as follows:

Q.sub.x=Q.sub.x+δ cos(θ) (12)

Q.sub.y=Q.sub.y+δ sin(θ) (13)

[0102] where δ is the step size, and θ is the angle of the composite vector of both the radial strain Y.sub.j and the tangential strain Y.sub.q;

[0103] the function expression for calculating the polar coordinates of the new position of the endpoint Q.sub.i is as follows:

β=arctan(Q.sub.y/Q.sub.x) (14)

R.sub.q=√{square root over (Q.sub.x.sup.2+Q.sub.y.sup.2)} (15)

[0104] where β is a polar angle of a new position of the endpoint Q.sub.i, R.sub.q is a polar diameter of a new position of the endpoint Q.sub.i, and arctan is an arctangent function.

[0105] In this embodiment, in step A2), the step of arranging a center proximal transition arc between each pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires of the second induction resistor R2 and the fourth induction resistor R4 according to the first two positions of the endpoint Q.sub.i in the list Listi includes:

[0106] B1) for the pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires, drawing a normal perpendicular to the line segment between Listi[0] and Listi[1] of the rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.i by a first element Listi[0] in the list Listi of the rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.i located on the rotating direction side, in which the normal intersects with another rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j at a point F.sub.j; B2) constructing a semicircle with a radius r.sub.4 by taking the line segment between the first element Listi[0] in the list Listi and the point F.sub.j as the diameter, in which the semicircle is taken as the center proximal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j;

[0107] B3) for the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j, deleting the line segment between the point F.sub.j and the position corresponding to the first element Listj[0] in the list Listj of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j from the arrangement; B4) searching for the element Listj[z.sub.1] closest to the point F.sub.j in the list Listj, extracting the index number z.sub.1, subtracting the length z.sub.1×δ from the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j, and calculating the length L.sub.j of the center proximal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j according to L.sub.j=(r.sub.4×π), where r.sub.4 is the radius of the center proximal transition arc, and δ is the step size.

[0108] As shown in FIG. 6, taking the center proximal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m as an example, the steps include: (1) selecting to draw a normal perpendicular to the line segment between a first element List1[0] and a second element List1[1] of the rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 by the first element List1[0] (i.e. M.sub.i) of the rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 located on the rotating direction side, in which the normal intersects with the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m at a point F.sub.j (in this embodiment, the center proximal end (i.e., M.sub.1) of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 in the counterclockwise direction is selected as the starting point of the normal. Because the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 is in the counterclockwise direction of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m, the normal starts from the center proximal end of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 and intersects with the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m); (2) taking the element List1[0] and the point F.sub.j as the endpoints, and making a semicircle with the line segment between the element List1[0] and the point F.sub.j as the diameter, in which the semicircle is the center proximal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m, and its radius length is marked as r.sub.4; (3) for the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m, deleting the line segment between the point F.sub.j and the position corresponding to the first element Listm[0] (i.e., M.sub.m) in the list Listm of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m from the arrangement (referring to the dotted line of FIG. 6); (4) searching the element closest to the point F.sub.j in the list Listm for the element Listm[z.sub.1], extracting the index number z.sub.1 corresponding to the element Listm[z.sub.1], in which assuming that Listm[z.sub.1] is closest to the point F.sub.j, (z.sub.1×δ) (approximate calculation) needs to be subtracted from the length of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m, for example, in the figure, Listm[1] is closest to the point F.sub.j, that is, δ needs to be subtracted from the length of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m, the smaller the step size δ is, the smaller the error of the approximate calculation value is; and calculating the length L.sub.j of the center proximal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m according to L.sub.j=(r.sub.4×π), where r.sub.4 is the radius of the center proximal transition arc, and δ is the step size.

[0109] In this embodiment, in step A3), the step of arranging a center distal transition arc between each pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires of the second induction resistor R2 and the fourth induction resistor R4 according to the new position of each endpoint Q.sub.i includes:

[0110] C1) for the pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires, drawing a normal perpendicular to the line segment between Listi[U−2] and Listi[U−1] of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i by taking the position corresponding to the last element Listi[U−1] in the list Listi of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i on the side away from the rotating direction as the starting point, in which the normal intersects with another rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j at a point F.sub.y;

[0111] C2) constructing a semicircle with a radius r.sub.5 by taking the line segment between the last element Listi[U−1] and the point F.sub.y as the diameter, in which the semicircle is taken as the center distal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j;

[0112] C3) for the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j, deleting the line segment between the point F.sub.y and the last element Listj[U−1] in the list Listj of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j from the arrangement;

[0113] C4) searching the element closest to the point F.sub.y in the list Listj for the element Listj[z.sub.2], extracting the index number z.sub.2 corresponding to the element Listj[z.sub.2], subtracting the length (U−1-z.sub.2)×δ from the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j, and calculating the length Ly of the center distal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j according to L.sub.y=(r.sub.5×π), where r.sub.5 is the radius of the center distal transition arc, U is the update number, and δ is the step size.

[0114] As shown in FIG. 7, taking the center distal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.2 as an example, the steps include: (1) in this embodiment, for the pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires, selecting the side away from the rotating direction as the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 as the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i, drawing a normal perpendicular to the line segment between List1[U−2] and Listi[U−1] of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i by taking the last element List1[U−1] (Q1) in the list Listi of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 on the side away from the rotating direction as the starting point, in which the normal intersects with another rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j at a point F.sub.y; (2) constructing a semicircle with a radius r.sub.5 by taking the line segment between the last element Listi[U−1] and the point F.sub.y as the diameter, in which the semicircle is taken as the center distal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.1 and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.2; (3) for the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.2, deleting the line segment between the point F.sub.y and the last element List2[U−1] in the list List2 of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.2 from the arrangement; (4) searching the element closest to the point F.sub.y in the list List2 for the element List2[z.sub.2], extracting the index number z.sub.2 corresponding to the element List2[z.sub.2], in which assuming that List2[z.sub.2] is closest to the point F.sub.j, (U−1-z.sub.2)×δ (approximate calculation) needs to be subtracted from the length of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S; and calculating the length Ly of the center distal transition arc between the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.i and the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j according to L.sub.y=(r.sub.5×π).

[0115] The resistance of the first induction unit should include the following parts.

[0116] A first part: the original length of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires: U×δ×m.

[0117] A second part: the deleted length (negative number) of the rotating multi-segment resistance wire: (1) when calculating the center proximal transition arc, the length (z.sub.1×δ) needs to be subtracted from the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.m of each pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires (corresponding to each center proximal transition arc), and the number of the center proximal transition arcs is m/2, so that (z.sub.1×δ)×m/2 needs to be subtracted from m rotating multi-segment resistance wires in total. (2) When calculating the center distal transition arc, the length (U−1-z.sub.2)×δ needs to be subtracted from the rotating multi-segment resistance wire S.sub.j of each pair of rotating multi-segment resistance wires (corresponding to each center distal transition arc), and the number of the center distal transition arcs is (m/2-2), so that (U−1-z.sub.2)×δ×(m/2-2) needs to be subtracted from m rotating multi-segment resistance wires in total.

[0118] A third part: the total length of m/2 center proximal transition arcs: L.sub.j×m/2

[0119] A fourth part: the total length of (m/2-2) center distal transition arcs: Ly x(m/2-2).

[0120] The resistance of the first induction unit can be expressed as:

(U×δ×m)+(L.sub.j−z.sub.1×δ)×m/2+(L.sub.y−(U-1-z.sub.2)×δ)×(m/2-2)

[0121] Therefore, the function expression of summing and dividing the total length of m rotating multi-segment resistance wires S.sub.1 to S.sub.m, the total length of m/2 center proximal transition arcs and the total length of (m/2-2) center distal transition arcs by 2 to obtain the estimated total length L2′ of the second induction resistor R2 or the fourth induction resistor R4 in step A4) is as follows:

L2′=((U×δm)+(L.sub.j−z.sub.1×δ)×m/2+(L.sub.y−(U−1−z.sub.2)×δ)×(m/2−2))/2

[0122] As an alternative embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following steps (taking the second induction resistor R2 as an example) of calculating the designed total length L2 of the second induction resistor R2 or the fourth induction resistor R4 prior to step A3): (1) obtaining the resistance value of the second induction resistor R2 when no pressure is applied as R2.sup.s; (2) according to the thin-film resistor manufacturing process, obtaining the thickness h of the second induction resistor R2, the resistivity ρ of the thin film and the resistance wire width w of the second induction resistor R2; (3) calculating the designed total length L2 of the second induction resistor R2 according to L2=R2.sup.s×(w×h)/ρ.

[0123] As an alternative embodiment, in this embodiment, prior to step A1), the step of determining the auxiliary circle R.sub.3 is further included: the narrowest distance between any adjacent rotating multi-segment resistance wires is set to d.sub.2, and d.sub.2 must satisfy the constraint condition 2w<d.sub.2, where w is the line width of the resistance wire, and then it can be deduced that the radius r.sub.3 of the auxiliary circle R.sub.3 must satisfy the constraint condition:

r.sub.3≥d.sub.2/(2×cos(360/2m))

[0124] where m is the total number of the rotating multi-segment resistance wires. In order to keep a certain margin, in this embodiment, the radius of the auxiliary circle R.sub.3 is determined as r.sub.3:

r.sub.3≥d.sub.2/cos(360/2m)

[0125] In this embodiment, in step A1), m points M.sub.1 to M.sub.m are uniformly marked on the auxiliary circle R.sub.3 with the center of a circle O as the center, where M.sub.1 is located in the direction of a polar coordinate 0°, M.sub.2 is located in the direction of a polar coordinate 360°/m, and so on.

[0126] As an alternative embodiment, in this embodiment, the value of the step size δ in step A2) is <L2/1000, where L2 is the designed total length of the second induction resistor R2 or the fourth induction resistor R4.
