Abstract
As the Internet of Things becomes more and more mainstream, sensors are widely used in the field of motion monitoring. In this paper, we propose a lightweight and sensitive triboelectric nanogenerator (LS-TENG) consisting of transparent polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and polyamide (PA) films as triboelectric layers, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as support layer, and copper foil as electrode. LS-TENG can be attached to the joints of the human body, and the mechanical energy generated by human motion is converted into electric energy based on the triboelectric effect, thus realizing self-power supply. LS-TENG can monitor the angle changes in elbow and wrist joints when athletes pull the loop and actively generate the output voltage as a sensing signal, which is convenient for coaches to monitor the quality of athletes’ hitting in real time. In addition, LS-TENG can also be used as a power supply for other wireless electronic devices, which facilitates the construction and transmission of large motion data and opens up a new development direction for the field of motion monitoring.
