| Summary: | Human–machine interaction is now deeply integrated into our daily lives. However, the rigidity and high-power supply of traditional devices limit their further development. Herein, a high-performance flexible piezoelectric sensor (HFPS) based on a novel zinc oxide/polyacrylonitrile/Ecoflex (ZnO/PAN/Ecoflex) composite membrane is proposed. Due to the synergistic piezoelectricity of ZnO and PAN, the output voltage/current of the HFPS is increased by 140%/100% compared to the pure Zno/Ecoflex composite membrane. Furthermore, the fabricated HFPSs also have excellent sensitivity, linearity, stability and flexibility under periodic pressure. On this basis, due to its flexibility, stretchability and battery-free characteristics, a self-powered HFPS-based intelligent glove is proposed to wirelessly control diverse electronic systems through human hand gestures. In the meanwhile, the intelligent glove has been successfully applied to car two-dimensional motion, light bulb control and fan control. With the advantages of simple operation, portability and low power consumption, the glove is expected to provide new application prospects for human–machine interaction systems.
