A tactile sensor based on a MoS 2 strain gauge and a graphene electrode is integrated on a finger tip by M.‐S. Kim, J.‐H. Ahn, and co‐workers, as described on page 2556. The MoS 2 and graphene can be conformally attached onto a thumbprint thanks to their outstanding mechanical flexibility. The MoS 2 ‐based tactile sensor, showing excellent sensing properties, is expected to provide great opportunities for electronic‐skin and wearable‐electronics applications.
