Continuous real-time human motion and heart-rate monitoring systems can provide vital clinical information for disease diagnosis, preventive healthcare and rehabilitation care. However, it is still a challenge to design wearable pressure/strain sensors with great flexibility and sustainable power for motion detection and physiological signal monitoring. Here, a self-powered laminated fabric sensor based on Schottky contact was successfully fabricated. This laminated fabric sensor was constructed by sandwiching the polypyrrole (PPy)-coated fabric with the Ni-coated fabric and Al plastic film. The electrical outputs under strain were attributed to the single Schottky contact between PPy and Al. This fabric sensor exhibited excellent stability under continuous quick cycling operation and at high relative humidity, which could be adapted to different human body parts for continuous motion detection and heart-rate monitoring. This work is of great significance to demonstrate a promising strategy toward self-powered wearable pressure sensors used for human motion detecting and hear-rate monitoring.

Wearable electronic sensing devices are deemed to be a crucial technology of smart personal electronics. Strain and pressure sensors, one of the most popular research directions in recent years, are the key components of smart and flexible electronics. Graphene, as an advanced nanomaterial, exerts pre-eminent characteristics including high electrical conductivity, excellent mechanical properties, and flexibility. The above advantages of graphene provide great potential for applications in mechatronics, robotics, automation, human-machine interaction, etc.: graphene with diverse structures and leverages, strain and pressure sensors with new functionalities. Herein, the recent progress in graphene-based strain and pressure sensors is presented. The sensing materials are classified into four structures including 0D fullerene, 1D fiber, 2D film, and 3D porous structures. Different structures of graphene-based strain and pressure sensors provide various properties and multifunctions in crucial parameters such as sensitivity, linearity, and hysteresis. The recent and potential applications for graphene-based sensors are also discussed, especially in the field of human motion detection. Finally, the perspectives of graphene-based strain and pressure sensors used in human motion detection combined with artificial intelligence are surveyed. Challenges such as the biocompatibility, integration, and additivity of the sensors are discussed as well.
