Flexible and stretchable electronics are an exciting frontier for the next generation of wearable and portable electronic devices. In this talk, I will present our recent progresses of nanomaterials based high-performance flexible and stretchable sensing electronics: Established the methodology for developing novel flexible/stretchable microsensors based on highly sensitive nanomaterials, and developed the flexible/stretchable bionic devices such as “electronic-skin”, “electronic-eardrum”, and “electronic-fingerprint” etc., which set up the technical basis for their applications in wearable smart systems, human-computer interaction, and health assessments. I’d like to discuss the roles of the nanomaterials, material interface, and micro-structure design in achieving high flexibility and stretchability, and also the strategies to achieve high sensitivity, stability, and fast response time of the flexible sensing electronics. The facile and low-cost printing method for fabricating engineered flexible sensors and sensor arrays will be addressed, and the applications in several areas such as robotic sensory skins, wearable health monitoring systems, and human-machine interfaces will be demonstrated.
