A Comprehensive Review: Recent Developments of Biomimetic Sensors

Flexible resistive tactile pressure sensors

“…In the field of biomimicry material innovation, whether assembling existing materials based on biomimetic structures or directly developing novel biomimetic materials, it can enhance the elasticity and biocompatibility of flexible resistive tactile sensors, achieving more intelligent and biologically analogous sensor responses. 81 Wang et al replicated the anisotropic one-dimensional microstructure of reed leaves, using the multilayer stacking of microgrooved polydimethylsiloxane ( m -PDMS) to develop a highly sensitive flexible resistive tactile sensor with a sensitivity of 2.54 kPa −1 . This sensor achieves a rapid response within 30 ms in a working range of 107 kPa and is applicable in medical and human–machine interaction.…”

Self-healing materials in biomedicine and the circular economy

“…In the field of soft sensor research, the focus has been on creating biomimetic devices, electronics, and sensors inspired by nature via mimicking properties like softness, flexibility, stretchability, self-healing, and self-cleaning. [63][64][65][66][67][68] The notion of self-healing, initially conceptualized in science fiction, has recently garnered significant attention in scientific exploration. The basic idea is clear: providing electronic devices with the ability to heal, the same as the natural recovery and repair processes observed in living organisms when faced with structural damage such as scratches and cuts, thereby restoring their functionality.…”

Advanced Bionic Attachment Equipment Inspired by the Attachment Performance of Aquatic Organisms: A Review

“…Wearable electronic flexible sensors are gradually recognized due to their high efficiency, lightweight, and good comfort advantages. According to the sensing principle, sensors can be divided into pressure sensors, humidity sensors, temperature sensors, biosensors, and chemical gas sensors [ 141 ]. They have been gradually applied to the long-term monitoring of physical, electrophysiological, or biochemical signals and environmental conditions [ 142 , 143 ].…”
