Professor Jae Yeong Park (Electronic Engineering) Research Team Develops Highly Stretchable, Self-Powered Sensor for Human Activity Monitoring

- Expected Applications in Digital Healthcare, Sports, Human-Machine Interfaces, Gaming Industry, and More -

- Paper Published in the Internationally Renowned Elsevier Journal 'Chemical Engineering Journal (IF: 15.1)' -

A research team led by Professor Jae Yeong Park (Department of Electronic Engineering) at Kwangwoon University has developed a highly stretchable Ecoflex and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanocomposite material. By depositing this material onto conductive textile electrodes, they have created a high-output triboelectric nanogenerator and a highly sensitive, self-powered sensor for monitoring human activities.

 

The research was supported by the Korean Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy's Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology (P0020967, 2024 Industrial Innovation Talent Growth Support Project), the Korea Evaluation Institute of Industrial Technology's Industrial Technology Innovation Project (RS-2022-00154983, Development of a Self-Powered Sensor Platform for Low-Power Sensors and Actuators), and Kwangwoon University's 2023 Internal Researcher Support Program. The results were published in the 'Chemical Engineering Journal' (IF: 15.1), a leading international journal in the field of chemical engineering published by Elsevier. Dr. Sohel, a co-first author, has been serving as a professor at a public university in Bangladesh (Noakhali Science and Technology University) since July 2023.
