Abstract
A type of strain sensor with high tolerable strain based on a ZnO nanowires/polystyrene nanofibers hybrid structure on a polydimethylsiloxane film is reported. The novel strain sensor can measure and withstand high strain and demonstrates good performance on rapid human‐motion measurements. In addition, the device could be driven by solar cells. The results indicate that the device has potential applications as an outdoor sensor system.Keywords
