Abstract
The research of boxing has been paid more and more attention in today's sports field. And the research and development of relevant monitoring equipment is very important, especially wearable sports monitoring equipment. In this work, we proposed a novel hydrogel triboelectric nanogenerator (H-TENG) with self-healing function to obtain bio-mechanical energy and boxing training monitoring. The H-TENG follows the single-electrode working mode. In detail, the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) serve as the triboelectric layer and the ionic hydrogel play the role of conductive electrode. According to the experimental results, the Voc and Isc of the H-TENGs are 90 V, 0.72 μA, respectively. The H-TENG can be installed on the boxing glove to monitor boxing motion information to achieve the self-powered sports sensor. Our research will promote the development of self-powered sports sensor.
