Abstract Multiple strain sensors are required to identify individual forces/stresses on human joints and recognize how they work together in order determine the motion’s direction trajectory. However, current cannot detect differentiate their contributions motion from sensors’ electrical signals. To address this critical issue, we propose a concept of unimodal tension, bend, shear, twist with piezoelectric poly L-lactic acid films. We then construct an integrated sensor (i-US) using prove that i-US can modes, such as tensioning, bending, shearing, twisting complex motion. demonstrate potential impact sensors, design sleeve glove capture wrist motions finger movements. Therefore, expect provide turning point developing recognition control systems.

Flexible on-skin electronics present tremendous popularity in intelligent electronic skins (e-skins), healthcare monitoring, and human-machine interfaces. However, the reported e-skins can hardly provide high permeability, good stretchability, large sensitivity are limited long-term stability efficient recyclability when worn on human body. Herein, inspired from skin, a permeable, stretchable, recyclable cellulose aerogel-based system is developed by sandwiching screen-printed silver sensing layer between biocompatible CNF/HPC/PVA (cellulose nanofiber/hydroxypropyl cellulose/poly(vinyl alcohol)) aerogel hypodermis permeable polyurethane as epidermis layer. The displays tensile strength of 1.14 MPa strain 43.5% while maintaining permeability. embrace appealing performances with (gauge factor ≈ 238), ultralow detection limit (0.1%), fast response time (18 ms) under stimulus. Owing to disconnection reconnection microcracks layer, both strain/humidity thermal be easily achieved. further integrated into an mask for patient-centered power supply system, switching control device, wireless Bluetooth module. Moreover, prepared enables wearing skin without irritation, all components recaptured/reused water. This material strategy highlights potential next-generation permeability environmental friendliness.
