Electronic skins (e-skins) are devices that can respond to mechanical stimuli and enable robots to perceive their surroundings. A great challenge for existing e-skins is that they may easily fail under extreme mechanical conditions due to their multilayered architecture with mechanical mismatch and weak adhesion between the interlayers. Here we report a flexible pressure sensor with tough interfaces enabled by two strategies: quasi-homogeneous composition that ensures mechanical match of interlayers, and interlinked microconed interface that results in a high interfacial toughness of 390 J·m−2. The tough interface endows the sensor with exceptional signal stability determined by performing 100,000 cycles of rubbing, and fixing the sensor on a car tread and driving 2.6 km on an asphalt road. The topological interlinks can be further extended to soft robot-sensor integration, enabling a seamless interface between the sensor and robot for highly stable sensing performance during manipulation tasks under complicated mechanical conditions.

Flexible pressure sensors have gained attention for their comfort, portability, and potential in long‐term pulse monitoring and early cardiovascular disease diagnosis. However, stretching stress during daily activities affects sensor accuracy, causing motion artifacts (MAs) that hinder precise pulse signal detection. To address this challenge, the anti‐motion artifact iontronic pressure sensor (S‐smooth sensor), featuring a soft‐hard stretchable interface with energy dissipation properties is developed. By regulating the local modulus of the encapsulation layer, this structure dissipates stretching stress, achieving an MAs suppression rate of up to 90%, significantly improving pulse signal accuracy and reliability. Additionally, the sensor incorporates a dielectric layer and double electrode layer (EDL) sensing interface, with a low‐friction design that ensures high sensitivity (92.76 kPa−¹) and stability, maintaining performance over millions of cycles. The sensor accurately captures heart rate (HR) and pulse peak time differences (Δt) under various finger‐bending conditions. When integrated into a portable wireless pulse monitoring system, it shows a heart rate loss rate of only 2.9% during intense physical activity. This approach avoids complex chemical processes and material restrictions, offering a novel solution for motion artifact suppression in sensors, with significant potential for real‐time health monitoring and assisted diagnosis.

Flexible wearable pressure sensors play a pivotal role in healthcare monitoring, disease prevention, and humanmachine interactions. However, their narrow sensing ranges, low detection sensitivities, slow responses, and complex preparation processes restrict their application in smart wearable devices. Herein, a capacitive pressure sensor with high sensitivity and flexibility that uses an ionic collagen fiber material as the dielectric layer is proposed. The sensor exhibits a high sensitivity (5.24 kPa−1), fast response time (40 ms), long-term stability, and excellent repeatability over 3000 cycles. Because the sensor is resizable, flexible, and has a simple preparation process, it can be flexibly attached to clothes and the human body for wearable monitoring. Furthermore, the practicality of the sensor is proven by attaching it to different measurement positions on the human body to monitor the activity signal.
