Abstract For a long time, the daily paper and carbon ink have been used for writing painting. With development of electronic technology, they are expected to play new roles in devices. Herein, combining unique characteristics (rough surface, hydrophilicity) (conductivity), this work rationally proposed two low-cost, eco-friendly, flexible, multifunctional pressure humidity sensors. The results show that as-fabricated paper-based (PB) sensor has good sensitivity 0.614 kPa −1 range 0–6 kPa. PB large response ∼2120 (current ratio at 91.5% relative (RH) 0% RH). is proven be useful multiple related contact detections, can many non-contact detections. Interestingly, different detecting modes sensors, some same functions (e.g. switch, respiratory frequency speech recognition) realized from using which greatly enhance wearable comfort. Compared with previous reports, demonstrates much simpler approach without expensive raw materials, toxic reagents high temperature treatment achieve outstanding sensing performances
