TL;DR: This review covers the smart designs of structural materials inspired by natural materials and their utility in the construction of flexible devices, and summarizes structural materials that accommodate mechanical deformations, which is the fundamental requirement for flexible devices to work properly in complex environments.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that auxetic mechanical metamaterials can be incorporated into stretchable strain sensors to significantly enhance the sensitivity, and paves the way for utilizing mechanical metAMaterials into a broader library of stretchable electronics.

TL;DR: An artificial sensory neuron that can integrate and differentiate the spatiotemporal features of touched patterns for recognition is shown, which represents a step toward the design and use of neuromorphic electronic skin with artificial intelligence for robotics and prosthetics.

TL;DR: The proposed skin-conformable electronics based on biomaterials will pave the way for the harmonized integration of electronics into human.

TL;DR: A new method of transient thermal curing is used to achieve the large-scale fabrication of modified elastic microfibers with intrinsic microbeads, and the strategy used here will shift the vision of the sensitivity enhancement method from the active materials design to the mechanical design of the elastic substrate.
