Abstract
AbstractAgainst the backdrop of rapid advancements in 5G and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, there is an urgent need to upgrade food sensing systems to achieve automation, digitalization, and intelligence. However, this transformation process faces numerous challenges. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), as an emerging energy conversion and sensing technology, play a crucial role in this context. They not only provide power to functional devices but also serve as sensors in multifunctional self‐powered food sensing systems, capable of detecting various physical and chemical information. This review explores the development of TENGs in the field of food sensing, focusing on the working principles of their self‐powered sensing. The review also systematically organizes and classifies the material and device designs used for TENGs in various food applications. Based on the performance of TENGs, a detailed introduction is provided on the specific applications of self‐powered food sterilization, self‐powered food quality monitoring, and self‐powered taste sensing in the field of food safety. Finally, this paper discusses the challenges and corresponding strategies of TENGs in the food sensing field. The aim is to further promote unmanned and smart services and management in the food sector and to provide new research perspectives.
