Human skin comprises multiple hierarchical layers that perform various functions such as protection, sensing, and structural support. Developing electronic skin (E-skin) with similar properties has broad implications in health monitoring, prosthetics, and soft robotics. While previous efforts have predominantly concentrated on sensory capabilities, this study introduces a hierarchical polymer system that not only structurally resembles the epidermis-dermis bilayer structure of skin but also encompasses sensing functions. The system comprises a polymeric hydrogel, representing the “dermis”, and a superimposed nanoporous polymer film, forming the “epidermis”. Within the film, interconnected nanoparticles mimic the arrangement of interlocked corneocytes within the epidermis. The fabrication process employs a robust in situ interfacial precipitation polymerization of specific water-soluble monomers that become insoluble during polymerization. This process yields a hybrid layer esta ....
Researchers at Texas A&M University have made strides in developing 3D-printed electronic skin that mimics the flexibility and sensitivity of human skin. ....

PERTH, Australia, March 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ Strategic Elements Ltd(ASX: SOR) is pleased to announce multiple Energy Ink battery breakthroughs in materials engineering and power management targeted towards the rapidly growing USD 10 billion Electronic Skin Patch market. Testing has shown a further 225% increase in power output, and importantly, for the first time, an ultra-stable output voltage was demonstrated from moisture. Stable output voltages are criticalto power the sensitive electronic circuits contained in many electronic devices, enabling them to perform more reliably and without error. It is unusual to demonstrate such a stable output voltage this early in the development of a new battery technology. Given the revolutionary manner in which the Energy Ink generates energy from moisture, it is a highly important early achievement. Generating Energy From Moisture The Energy Ink operates like no other form of energy generation available today through water molecules in the ai ....
