Upon the contact-electrification effect, the induced triboelectric signals activate the ion-gel-gated MoS2 postsynaptic transistor, endowing the artificial afferent with the adaptive capacity to carry out spatiotemporal recognition/sensation on external stimuli (e.g., displacements, pressures and touch patterns).
