A Stretchable and Self-Healing Hybrid Nano-Generator for Human Motion Monitoring.

ABSTRACT: Transparent stretchable wearable hybrid nano-generators present great opportunities in motion sensing, motion monitoring, and human-computer interaction. Herein, we report a piezoelectric-triboelectric sport sensor (PTSS) which is composed of TENG, PENG, and a flexible transparent stretchable self-healing hydrogel electrode. The piezoelectric effect and the triboelectric effect are coupled by a contact separation mode. According to this effect, the PTSS shows a wide monitoring range. It can be used to monitor human multi-dimensional motions such as bend, twist, and rotate motions, including the screw pull motion of table tennis and the 301C skill of diving. In addition, the flexible transparent stretchable self-healing hydrogel is used as the electrode, which can meet most of the motion and sensing requirements and presents the characteristics of high flexibility, high transparency, high stretchability, and self-healing behavior. The whole sensing system can transmit signals through Bluetooth devices. The flexible, transparent, and stretchable wearable hybrid nanogenerator can be used as a wearable motion monitoring sensor, which provides a new strategy for the sports field, motion monitoring, and human-computer interaction.

An Ultra-Stretchable Sensitive Hydrogel Sensor for Human Motion and Pulse Monitoring.

Project description:Ionic hydrogels with intrinsic conductivity and stretchability show great potential in flexible electronics. However, it remains a great challenge to achieve hydrogels with mechanical stretchability, ionic conductivity, optical transparency, and a self-healing ability at the same time. In this paper, we developed a hydroxyethylidene diphosphonic acid (HEDP) assisted poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) composite hydrogel to achieve high-performance stretch-sensitive sensor. Through a facile freeze-thaw strategy, the hydrogel could achieve large stretchability (up to 950% strain), good conductivity (10.88 S/m), excellent linear sensitivity (GF = 2.72, within 100% strain), high transparency, and significant self-healing ability. The PVA-HEDP hydrogel-based strain sensor is capable of monitoring various human movements from small scale (e.g., laryngeal vibration while speaking) to large scale (e.g., knee joint movement). Moreover, the multisite sensor array is capable of detecting the subtle differences between the pulse wave features from Cun, Guan and Chi positions, mimicking the three-finger palpation in Traditional Chinese Medicine. This work demonstrates that the composite hydrogel-based flexible sensor provides a promising solution for multifunctional human activities and health monitoring.

Stretchable and Washable Strain Sensor Based on Cracking Structure for Human Motion Monitoring.

Project description:Stretchable and wearable strain sensors have been intensively studied in recent years for applications in human motion monitoring. However, achieving a high-performance strain sensor with high stretchability, ultra-sensitivity, and functionality, such as tunable sensing ranges and sensitivity to various stimuli, has not yet been reported, even though such sensors have great importance for the future applications of wearable electronics. Herein, a novel and versatile strain sensor based on a cracking (silver ink patterned silicone elastomer)-(silver plated nylon structure) (Ag-DS/CF) has been designed and fabricated. The unique structure combined precisely shaped stretchable conductive fabrics and wrinkled Ag-ink pattern to achieve an excellent electrical performance. The Ag-DS/CF could be used to detect both large and subtle human motions and activities, pressure changes, and physical vibrations by achieving high stretchability up to 75%, ultrahigh sensitivity (gauge factor >104-106), tunable sensing ranges (from 7 to 75%). Excellent durability was demonstrated for human motion monitoring with machine washability. The extremely versatile Ag-DS/CF showed outstanding potential for the future of wearable electronics in real-time monitoring of human health, sports performance, etc.

Stretchable Strain Sensor for Human Motion Monitoring Based on an Intertwined-Coil Configuration.

Project description:Wearable electronics, such as sensors, actuators, and supercapacitors, have attracted broad interest owing to their promising applications. Nevertheless, practical problems involving their sensitivity and stretchability remain as challenges. In this work, efforts were devoted to fabricating a highly stretchable and sensitive strain sensor based on dip-coating of graphene onto an electrospun thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) nanofibrous membrane, followed by spinning of the TPU/graphene nanomembrane into an intertwined-coil configuration. Owing to the intertwined-coil configuration and the synergy of the two structures (nanoscale fiber gap and microscale twisting of the fiber gap), the conductive strain sensor showed a stretchability of 1100%. The self-inter-locking of the sensor prevents the coils from uncoiling. Thanks to the intertwined-coil configuration, most of the fibers were wrapped into the coils in the configuration, thus avoiding the falling off of graphene. This special configuration also endowed our strain sensor with an ability of recovery under a strain of 400%, which is higher than the stretching limit of knees and elbows in human motion. The strain sensor detected not only subtle movements (such as perceiving a pulse and identifying spoken words), but also large movements (such as recognizing the motion of fingers, wrists, knees, etc.), showing promising application potential to perform as flexible strain sensors.

Stretchable Graphene Thin Film Enabled Yarn Sensors with Tunable Piezoresistivity for Human Motion Monitoring.

Project description:1D graphene based flexible sensors as wearable electronics have recently attracted considerable attentions because of lightweight, high extensibility, easy to wind and weave, and superior sensitivity. In this research, we established a facile and low-cost strategy to construct graphene thin film enabled yarn sensors (GYS) by combining the process of graphene oxide (GO) coating and reducing on polyester (PE) wound spandex yarns. According to systematic processing-property relationship study, a key finding of this work discovers that the degree of resistance recovery as well as gauge sensitivity of GYS can be well controlled and modulated by a pre-stretch treatment. Specifically, as the level of pre-stretch increases from 0 to 60%, the deformable range of sensor that guarantees full resistance recovery prolongs evidently from 0% to ~50%. Meanwhile, the gauge factor of GYS is tunable in the range from 6.40 to 12.06. To understand the pre-stretch process dependent sensing performance, SEM analysis was assisted to evidence the growing size of micro-cracks determining dominantly the behavior of electron transport. Lastly, to take better advantage of GYS, a new wearing mode was demonstrated by direct winding the yarn sensor on varied portions of human body for monitoring different body movements and muscle contracting & relaxing.

Stretchable, self-healing, transient macromolecular elastomeric gel for wearable electronics.

Project description:Flexible and stretchable electronics are emerging in mainstream technologies and represent promising directions for future lifestyles. Multifunctional stretchable materials with a self-healing ability to resist mechanical damage are highly desirable but remain challenging to create. Here, we report a stretchable macromolecular elastomeric gel with the unique abilities of not only self-healing but also transient properties at room temperature. By inserting small molecule glycerol into hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), forming a glycerol/hydroxyethylcellulose (GHEC) macromolecular elastomeric gel, dynamic hydrogen bonds occur between the HEC chain and the guest small glycerol molecules, which endows the GHEC with an excellent stretchability (304%) and a self-healing ability under ambient conditions. Additionally, the GHEC elastomeric gel is completely water-soluble, and its degradation rate can be tuned by adjusting the HEC molecular weight and the ratio of the HEC to glycerol. We demonstrate several flexible and stretchable electronics devices, such as self-healing conductors, transient transistors, and electronic skins for robots based on the GHEC elastomeric gel to illustrate its multiple functions.

Stretchable Electronic Wearable Motion Sensors Delineate Signatures of Human Motion Tasks.

Project description:Digital tracking of human motion offers the potential to monitor a wide range of activities detecting normal versus abnormal performance of tasks. We examined the ability of a wearable, conformal sensor system, fabricated from stretchable electronics with contained accelerometers and gyroscopes, to specifically detect, monitor, and define motion signals and "signatures," associated with tasks of daily living activities. The sensor system was affixed to the dominant hand of healthy volunteers (n = 4) who then completed four tasks. For all tasks examined, motion data could be captured, monitored continuously, uploaded to the digital cloud, and stored for further analysis. Acceleration and gyroscope data were collected in the x-, y-, and z-axes, yielding unique patterns of component motion signals for each task studied. Upon analysis, low-frequency (<10 Hz) tasks (walking, drinking from a mug, and opening a pill bottle) showed low intersubject variability (<0.3g difference) and low interrepetition variability (<0.1g difference) when comparing the acceleration of each axis for a single task. High-frequency (?10 Hz) activity (brushing teeth) yielded low intersubject variability of peak frequencies in acceleration of each axis. Each motion task was readily distinguishable and identifiable (with ?70% accuracy) by independent observers from motion signatures alone, without the need for direct visual observation. Stretchable electronic technologies offer the potential to provide wireless capture, tracking, and analysis of detailed directional components of motion for a wide range of individual activities and functional status.

Stretchable Multiresponsive Hydrogel with Actuatable, Shape Memory, and Self-Healing Properties.

Project description:Smart hydrogels with responsive behaviors have attracted tremendous attention. However, it is still a challenge to synthesize stretchable hydrogels capable of changing their original properties in response to multiple external stimuli. Here, integration of actuation function, shape memory, and self-healing capability in a highly stretchable hydrogel under triple external triggers is achieved by rationally engineering multiple functional moieties. The hydrogel exhibits high stretchability (average relative strain (mm/mm) is >15) and excellent fatigue resistance during 100 loading cycles of 100% strain. Incorporating a moisture-insensitive polymer film with the hydrogel, hydroactuated functionality is demonstrated. Moreover, shape memory and self-healing abilities of the hydrogel are realized by the formation of ionic crosslinking or dynamic borate ester in conditions of multivalent cations and pH, respectively. Deformable plastic flowers are displayed in this work as a proof-of-concept, and it is believed that this smart hydrogel could be used in plenty of frontier fields, such as designing electronic devices, soft robotics, and actuators.
