Sea cucumber-inspired self-healing ionotronic hydrogel for tactile sensing and human-machine interaction

Caption

A sea cucumber-inspired AETC hydrogel integrates dynamic hydrogen bonding and ionic electrostatic interactions to achieve room-temperature self-healing, strong adhesion, and highly sensitive capacitive pressure sensing. When integrated into a smart tactile glove, the hydrogel-based sensor enables real-time tactile sensing, object-shape recognition, and directional-intent decoding for reliable human-machine interaction control.
