Transportation-induced damage to fresh produce is a big challenge in logistics. Current acceleration and pressure sensors for collision monitoring face issues of power dependency, high cost, and environmental concerns. Here, a self-powered and environmentally friendly triboelectric sensor has been developed to monitor fruit collisions in transportation packaging. Microcrystalline cellulose/chitosan and sodium alginate films were prepared as positive and negative tribo-layers to assemble a natural polysaccharide film-based triboelectric nanogenerator (NP-TENG). The NP-TENG’s electrical output was proportional to the structure parameters (contact surface roughness and separation gap of the tribo-layers) and the vibration factors (force and frequency) and exhibited excellent stability and durability (over 100,000 cycles under 13 N at 10 Hz). The high mechanical-to-electrical conversion efficiency (instantaneous areal power density of 9.6 mW/m2) and force sensitivity (2.2 V/N) enabled the NP-TENG to be a potential sensor for monitoring fresh produce collisions in packaging during logistics. Transportation simulation measurements of kiwifruits verified that the sensor’s electrical outputs increased with the vibration frequency and stacking layer while varying at different packaging locations. This study suggests that the NP-TENG can effectively monitor collision damage during fruit transportation, providing new insights into developing intelligent food packaging systems to reduce postharvest supply chain losses.

“…Figure b demonstrates that the V OC increases with the gap of the NP-TENG. According to the principles of electrodynamics and Gauss’s theorem, it is evident that the V OC of the NP-TENG is directly proportional to the distance x between the tribo-layers (Figure S8).…”
