Wearable electronics with flexible, integrated, and self-powered multi-functions are becoming increasingly attractive, but their basic energy storage units are challenged in simultaneously high energy density, self-healing, and real-time sensing capability. To achieve this, a fully flexible and omni-healable all-hydrogel, that is dynamically crosslinked PVA@PANI hydrogel, is rationally designed and constructed via aniline/DMSO-emulsion-templated in situ freezing-polymerization strategy. The PVA@PANI sheet, not only possesses a honeycombed porous conductive mesh configuration with superior flexibility that provides numerous channels for unimpeded ions/electron transport and maximizes the utilization efficiency of pseudocapacitive PANI, but also can conform to complicated body surface, enabling effective detection and discrimination of body movements.
