About
YU Wei-dong is a pioneering researcher at the forefront of smart textiles and wearable electronic sensors, with a primary focus on developing advanced triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and multifunctional fabric-based sensing systems. His landmark 2019 study on the "3D double-faced interlock fabric triboelectric nanogenerator" has garnered 348 citations, establishing a foundational approach for harvesting bio-motion energy while simultaneously enabling self-powered stretching and 3D tactile sensing—a breakthrough that bridges energy harvesting with real-time human-machine interaction. In parallel, his collaborative work on "Silk Composite Electronic Textile Sensor" (2019, 9 citations) achieved a remarkable milestone by creating an intelligent glove capable of high-precision 2D combo temperature–pressure sensing, effectively granting robotic hands a human-like "sense of touch." This innovation, featured on the cover of *Small* (31/2019), demonstrates Yu’s expertise in integrating silk-based composites with electronic textiles for dual-modal sensing. His contributions are pivotal for advancing prosthetics, soft robotics, and wearable health monitors, positioning him as a key figure in the evolution of next-generation intelligent fabrics that seamlessly merge functionality with comfort.
