Abstract Post-earthquake rescue missions are full of challenges due to the unstable structure ruins and successive aftershocks. Most current robots lack ability interact with environments, leading low efficiency. The multimodal electronic skin (e-skin) proposed not only reproduces pressure, temperature, humidity sensing capabilities natural but also develops functions beyond it—perceiving object proximity NO 2 gas. Its multilayer stacked based on Ecoflex organohydrogel endows e-skin mechanical properties similar skin. Rescue integrated artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms show strong environmental perception can accurately distinguish objects identify human limbs through grasping, laying foundation for automated post-earthquake rescue. Besides, combination wireless alarm circuits allows sense toxic gases in environment real time, thereby adopting appropriate measures protect trapped people from environment. Multimodal powered by AI hardware exhibits powerful information processing capabilities, which, as an interface interaction physical world, dramatically expands intelligent robots’ application scenarios.

Electronic skin (e-skin) is considered as a highly promising interface for human-computer interaction systems and wearable electronic devices. Through elaborate design assembly of various materials, it possesses multiple characteristics similar to human skin, including remarkable flexibility, stretchability, sensitivity temperature humidity, biocompatibility, efficient interfacial ion/electron transport capabilities. Here, we innovatively integrate multifunctional carbon quantum dots (CQDs), which exhibit conductivity, antibacterial properties, ultraviolet absorption, fluorescence emission, with poly(acrylic acid) glycerin (Gly) into three-dimensional network structure natural goatskin collagen fibers. top-down strategy enhanced by hydrogen bond reconstruction, successfully fabricated novel transparent e-skin (PAC-eSkin). This exhibited significant tensile properties (4.94 MPa strength 263.42% maximum breaking elongation), while also possessing Young's modulus (2.32 MPa). It noteworthy that the functionalized CQDs used was derived from discarded goat hair, addition Gly gave PAC-eSkin excellent antifreezing moisturizing properties. Due presence ultrasmall CQDs, creates channels within PAC-eSkin, could rapidly sense motion physiological signals (with gauge factor (GF) 1.88). Furthermore, had potential replace traditional electrode patches real-time monitoring electrocardiogram, electromyogram, electrooculogram signals, higher SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) 25.1 dB. Additionally, customizable size shape offer vast possibilities construction single-electrode triboelectric nanogenerator systems. We have reason believe development this based on CQDs-functionalized dermal matrices can pave new way innovations in human–computer interfaces their sensing application diverse scenarios.

Ultrasensitive and Breathable Hydrogel Fiber‐Based Strain Sensors Enabled by Customized Crack Design for Wireless Sign Language Recognition

Advanced Functional Materials, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Ноя. 26, 2024

Abstract Wearable strain sensors, capable of continuously detecting human movements, hold great application prospects in sign language gesture recognition to alleviate the daily communication barriers deaf and mute community. However, unsatisfactory sensing performance (such as low sensitivity, narrow detection range, etc.) wearing discomfort severely hinder their practical application. Here, high‐performance breathable hydrogel sensors are proposed by introducing an adjustable localized crack a closed‐loop connected fiber encapsulated porous elastomer films. Upon loading/unloading external strain, dynamic opening/closing pre‐cut causes rapid switching conductive path, resulting sharp changes resistance high sensitivity. Consequently, hydrogel‐based crack‐effect sensor exhibits superb sensitivity (GF up 3930), broad range (from 0.02% 80%), fast response/recovery time (78/52 ms), repeatability, structural stability. Based on capability accurately detect various strains across full wireless system is developed achieve accuracy 98.1% encoding decoding gestures with assistance machine learning, providing robust platform for efficient intelligibility barrier‐free communication.
