Abstract
Commercial wearable biosignal sensing technologies encounter challenges associated with irritation or discomfort caused by unwanted objects in direct contact with the skin, which can discourage the widespread adoption of wearable devices. To address this issue, we propose a fabric-based lamina emergent MXene-based electrode, a lightweight and flexible shape-morphing wearable bioelectrode. This work offers an innovative approach to biosignal sensing by harnessing the high electrical conductivity and low skin-to-electrode contact impedance of MXene-based dry electrodes. Its design, inspired by Nesler’s pneumatic interference actuator, ensures stable skin-to-electrode contact, enabling robust biosignal detection in diverse situations. Extensive research is conducted on key design parameters, such as the width and number of multiple semicircular legs, the radius of the anchoring frame, and pneumatic pressure, to accommodate a wide range of applications. Furthermore, a real-time wireless electrophysiological monitoring system has been developed, with a signal-to-noise ratio and accuracy comparable to those of commercial bioelectrodes. This work excels in recognizing various hand gestures through a convolutional neural network, ultimately introducing a shape-morphing electrode that provides reliable, high-performance biosignal sensing for dynamic users.
