Fiber-based strain sensors, as wearable integrated devices, have shown substantial promise in health monitoring. However, current sensors suffer from limited tunability sensing performance, constraining their adaptability to diverse human motions. Drawing inspiration the structure of spiranthes sinensis, this study introduces a unique textile wrapping technique coil flexible silver (Ag) yarn around surface multifilament elastic polyurethane (PU), thereby constructing helical fiber-based sensor. The synergistic interaction between PU core and outer Ag enhances mechanical strength stretchability sensor, while external offers high conductivity. By adjusting spacing coils on we achieve precise control over both sensitivity range. Specifically, experimental results show that with pitch 1.25 mm, range reaches up 150%, gauge factor (GF) is 2.6; when adjusted 5 within 60% range, GF value significantly increases 9.3. Based these excellent performance metrics, further apply sensor conductor ECG monitoring garments, successfully verifying its practicality cardiac Additionally, developed smart glove for hand function rehabilitation training, utilizing wireless signal transmission promote recovery hemiplegic patients. also capable effectively respiratory rate pulse, showing broad prospects fields medicine healthcare.
