a Flow chart of triboelectric signal processing for manipulation in virtual space. b Examples of the original triboelectric signals after the preprocessing circuit. c Demonstration of controlling virtual character: (i) the controllable motions and the activated sensors with the limits of motion ranges for the rotational triboelectric bidirectional back (RTBD-B) sensor, the rotational triboelectric bidirectional shoulder (RTBD-S) sensor, the rotational triboelectric bidirectional elbow (RTBD-E) sensor, the rotational triboelectric bidirectional wrist (RTBD-W) sensor, and the linear triboelectric bidirectional finger (LTBD-F) sensor and (ii) the real-time signals during the manipulation, the output channels of BF, BB, SF, SB, EF, EB, WF, WB, FF, and FB stand for the forward (clockwise) and the backward (counterclockwise) rotations of the RTBD-B sensor, the RTBD-S sensor, the RTBD-E sensor, the RTBD-W sensor, and the LTBD-F sensor, i.e., BF for forward rotation of RTBD-B.
