Stretchable Self‐Powered Fiber‐Based Strain Sensor

Abstract

The rapid development of electrical skin and wearable electronics raises the requirement of stretchable strain sensors. In this study, an active fiber‐based strain sensor (AFSS) is fabricated by coiling a fiber‐based generator around a stretchable silicone fiber. The AFSS shows the sensitive and stable performance and has the ability to detect the strain up to 25%, which is also demonstrated to detect finger motion states. It may play an essential role in future self‐powered sensor system.
