Wearable sensors have recently attracted extensive interest not only in the field of healthcare monitoring but also for convenient and intelligent human–machine interactions. However, challenges such as wearable comfort, multiple applicable conditions, differentiation mechanical stimuli are yet to be fully addressed. Herein, we developed a breathable waterproof electronic skin (E-skin) that can perceive pressure/strain with nonoverlapping signals. The synergistic effect from magnetic attraction nanoscaled aggregation renders E-skin microscaled pores breathability three-dimensional microcilia superhydrophobicity. Upon applied pressure, bending conductive enables sufficient contacts resistance decrease, while stretching causes increased due separation materials. optimized exhibits high gauge factor 7.747 small strain (0–80%) detection limit down 0.04%. exhibit sensitivity −0.0198 kPa–1 (0–3 kPa) broad range up 200 kPa robustness. reliably precisely distinguish kinds human joint motions, covering spectrum including bending, stretching, pressure. With readouts, ternary inputs "1", "0", "–1" could produced different stimuli, which expands command capacity logic outputs effective Morse code intuitive robotic control.

Inspired by the interlocked biological geometry of human skin, herein, we design a flexible and transparent sensor with square column arrays composites Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs), citric acid (CA), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), which exhibit multisensory capabilities for pressure, temperature, humidity. As pressure sensor, AgNPs/CA/PVA possesses high sensitivity (-1.82 kPa-1), low detection limit (10 Pa), fast response (75 ms), outstanding stability due to contact resistance pressure. Because rigid dependence composite on can also act as temperature exhibits resolution (0.1 °C) reliability in detecting ambient temperature.
