Abstract
This study introduces a novel wearable device that combines dual‐functional modules for energy storage and sensing. The device features an ionic gel serving as both the battery electrolyte and sensor dielectric layer, along with VO2‐nanoneedles electrodes. The solid‐state zinc‐ion battery module demonstrates a specific capacity of 286 mAh g−1, delivering consistent and long‐lasting power output even under variable pressure conditions. Moreover, the iontronic pressure sensor module exhibits high sensitivity, achieving 2.3 × 104 kPa−1, enabling precise detection of fingertip pulses and identification of respiratory patterns. The device's flexibility and structural resilience allow it to endure complex deformations, ensuring continuous operation in challenging environments. These results highlight the potential of the all‐in‐one device for wearable smart healthcare monitoring and management.Keywords
