About

Hengyu Guo is a leading researcher in the fields of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), self-powered sensors, and human-machine interfacing. His work has fundamentally advanced the development of flexible, stretchable, and highly sensitive electronic systems that harvest energy from human motion and the environment. Guo’s most notable contribution is the design of a self-powered triboelectric auditory sensor (TAS) for social robotics and hearing aids, which has garnered over 776 citations and is recognized as a breakthrough in electronic auditory systems. He also pioneered a 3D double-faced interlock fabric TENG for bio-motion energy harvesting and tactile sensing (348 citations), and a highly shape-adaptive, stretchable energy harvester using conductive liquid (328 citations). His innovations extend to rotation sensing and gesture control for robot joints, as well as magnetic array-assisted TENG sensors for real-time gesture interaction. With over 2,400 total citations across his top ten papers, Guo’s work has been instrumental in bridging the gap between soft electronics, energy harvesting, and intelligent robotics. His research continues to shape the future of self-powered wearable devices and interactive robotic systems.
