In article number 1904350, Ramses V. Martinez and co‐workers fabricate omniphobic triboelectric nanogenerators (RF‐TENGs) by combining embroidery with spray‐based deposition of fluoroalkylated organosilanes and highly networked nanoflakes, which enable the simple and cost‐effective transformation of any conventional textiles into waterproof, breathable, and antibacterial e‐textiles for self‐powered human–machine interfacing. E‐textiles based on RF‐TENGs are compatible with large‐scale production processes and exhibit high sensitivity to touch.
