3nanoparticles (NPs) is presented. The sensor exhibits high sensitivities of 238 mV/kPa and 1705 mV/Hz, excellent cyclic stability greater than 103 cycles, and superior biocompatibility. The results show that there is a significant enhancement in both pressure and frequency sensitivity of nearly 10-fold and 6-fold respectively, compared to pure chitosan film. This is due to the higher piezoelectric coefficient (d33=13 pC/N) of the composite, around double. This proposed hybrid organic-inorganic composite material lays a robust foundation for future development of high-performance sensors for next generation prosthetics and soft robotic applications.">
