Abstract
A liquid crystal (LC)-based triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) with tunable structural colors and improved water locking effect was designed. The specific applications of this self-powered LC-TENG for optically visualized wearable smart sports assistance and skin-like thermal perception sensing were evaluated.
