Abstract

Herein, we introduce an ultra-thin self-powered artificial skin (SPAS) based on a piezoelectric nanogenerator, which harvests stored elastic deformation energy produced by the bending and stretching actions of the skin. This finding is an important step toward building a self-powered "smart skin".
