(a) Relative resistance change \(\varDelta \text{R}/{\text{R}}_{0}\) of the gel strain sensor under different applied strains. (b) Resistance change curves of the gel under repeated cycles of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% strain and 100% strain. (c) Long-term stability test of the gel sensor. (d) Stability test of relative resistance change at different strain levels. Application of organic hydrogel sensors for human activity detection: (e) finger bending and (f) fist clenching.
