Variable contact resistance between a highly elastic graphene aerogel and a rigid metal electrode is used for the analysis of non-binary pushing and pulling mechanical forces acting on the contact, enabling superior strain and pressure measurements. The variable contact resistance based electromechanical sensors demonstrate superfast, ultrasensitive and quantitative measurements of compressive and tensile stress from −1.18 MPa to 0.55 MPa. The sensors can operate over the temperature range of −60 to 100 °C, cover the whole skin and human motion range, and determine the weight of a grasped object. The measurement of such high forces has only been possible due to the high-temperature induced covalent cross-linking of graphene in the aerogel that provides high strength, durability, and fast response (<0.5 ms) to the sensing element. The study demonstrates the great potential of contact resistance-controlled sensing.
