Outcomes

【Technology Promotion】Self-powered sensing through touch

A research team at National Taiwan University (NTU) has developed a Triboelectric Nanogenerator and Operation Method Thereof, enabling sensing through triboelectric signals generated by the contact and separation of materials, without relying on an external power supply or batteries.
This technology can distinguish between different target materials, detect subtle temperature variations, and identify amino acids of different types and chirality. With its potential applications in health monitoring, robotic tactile sensing, environmental sensing, the Internet of Things (IoT), and industrial automation, this innovation opens up new possibilities for energy-independent smart sensing.
NTU’s Center of Industry-Academia Collaboration looks forward to exploring technology licensing and collaborative development opportunities with industry partners to bring this innovation closer to real-world applications.
