Soft Triboelectric Band for Sensing of and Energy Scavenging From Body Motion
نویسندگان
چکیده
We manifest a new method of developing wearable triboelectric band for self-powerd gesture sensing and power generating. Film casting technique, that is easily scalable, was used to patterned soft stretchable elastomers and conductive carbon based composites. The developed triboelectric band showed the capabilities of detecting locomotion of elbow and knee movement and provides electrical signal in response. The rms voltage, current and power of 2.9 V, 0.3 μA and 1.6 μW for elbow stretching, and 1.1 V, 0.11 μA and 0.22 μW for knee stretching was obtained for the optimum load of 10.1 MΩ at operational frequency of 1 ± 0.1 Hz.
