Graphical Abstract

Waterbomb-origami-inspired triboelectric nanogenerator (WO-TENG) was developed andcharacterized as a self-powered traffic monitoring for smart pavement. The WO-TENG candecouple the influence of speed and load, and its perception accuracy is more than 98%. This workcan not only address the challenge of traditional traffic monitoring system, but also promote thedevelopment of TENG based self-powered sensors in intelligent transportation systems (ITSs).

Abstract

With a rapid development of intelligent transportation systems (ITSs), traffic monitoring has gained increasing attention. Here, we present a new kind of waterbomb-origami-inspired triboelectric nanogenerator (WO-TENG) as a traffic monitoring system to integrate smart pavement with lightweight, cost-effective, excellent deformability, flexibility, and self-rebounding properties. The electrical performance is significantly improved by more than 67% compared with current origami-based TENG, and multi tribo-pairs have great synchronicity. The fully-packaged self-driven WO-TENG is further developed to integrate smart pavement, which can successfully decouple the influence of vehicle speed and weight on the sensing accuracy. This phenomenon demonstrates the feasibility and stability of the WO-TENG for traffic monitoring. Independently of the voltage amplitude and time interval electrical wave, vehicle speed, number of vehicles, and types of vehicles can be further evaluated accurately. This work can not only address the challenge of traditional traffic monitoring system, but also promote the development of TENG based self-powered sensors in ITSs.
