Zusammenfassung: | Flexible pressure sensors have attracted significant attention owing to their broad applicability in wearable electronics and human–machine interfaces. However, it is still challenging to simultaneously achieve a broad sensing range and high linearity. Here, we present a reversed lattice structure (RLS) piezoresistive sensor obtained through a layer-level engineered additive infill structure via conventional fused deposition modeling three-dimensional (3D) printing. The optimized RLS piezoresistive sensor attained a pressure sensing range (0.03–1630 kPa) with high linearity (coefficient of determination, R 2 = 0.998) and sensitivity (1.26 kPa–1) due to the structurally enhanced compressibility and spontaneous transition of dominant sensing mechanism of the sensor. It also exhibited great mechanical/electrical durability and a rapid response/recovery time (170/70 ms). This remarkable performance enables the detection of various human motions over a broad spectrum, from pulse detection to human walking. Finally, a wearable electronic glove was developed to analyze the pressure distribution in various situations, thereby demonstrating its applicability in multipurpose wearable electronics. |
