Smart skin-like electronics are urgently crucial for artificial muscles, while the development of self-powered two-dimensional-like multifunctional material systems remains significant challenges. Here, we demonstrate a new class of printed smart electronic skin (SES) with multi-sensing properties and energy conversion capability using simple and cost-effective printing techniques. The resulting all-organic self-powering SES functioning as a human-monitoring device where it can detect a variety of external stimuli and works as an ultra-flexible biomechanical energy harvester. Remarkably, our SES exhibits excellent antibacterial properties in addition to self-adaptive performance under various conditions, such as being bent, cut, sewed, hammered, punctured, and washed. The proposed SES devices here have the promise for broad applications in future functional-wearables for human-machine interface, soft robotics, and skin prosthetics.
