Abstract

) and folding (up to 500 times) durability, and after being made into a complex "thousand paper crane" shape it still provides stable humidity sensing performance. As a proof of concept, this humidity sensor demonstrates excellent responsivity to human breath monitoring, non-contact fingertip humidity detection, water boiling detection and air humidity monitoring, indicating great potential in the fields of wearable devices, weather forecasting systems and other intelligent humidity monitoring devices.
