Screen sensors are the most commonly used human-machine interfaces in our everyday life, which have been extensively applied in personal electronics like cellphones. Touchless screen sensors are attracting growing interest due to their distinct advantages of high interaction freedom, comfortability, and hand hygiene. However, the material compositions of current touchless screen sensors are rigid and fragile, hardly meeting the needs of wearable and stretchable on-skin electronics development. Additionally, these touchless screen sensors are also restricted by high power consumption, limited gesture types of recognition, and the requirement of light conditions. Here, we report a stretchable on-skin touchless screen sensor (OTSS) enabled by an ionic hydrogel-based triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). Compared with current touchless screen sensors, the OTSS is stretchable, self-powered, and competent to recognize diverse gestures by making use of charges naturally carried on fingers without the need of sufficient light conditions. An on-skin noncontact screen operating system is further demonstrated on the basis of the OTSS, which could unlock a cellphone interface in touchless operation mode on the human skin. This work for the first time introduces the on-skin touchless concept to screen sensors and offers a direction to develop new-generation screen sensors for future cellphones and personal electronics.
