a Schematic illustration of printing a conductive coil with pick-and-place LED on Ecoflex 00-30 substrate. b Image of the conductive coil with pick-and-place LED on Ecoflex 00-30 substrate. c The LED light can be turned on by an alternating magnetic field. d The LED light keeps on when the Ecoflex substrate is bent. e Schematic design of a multi-layered soft touch sensor. f Image of the soft touch sensor consisting of a capacitive touchpad, LED light, and power indicator (scale bar=8 mm). g The LED light turns on when a finger touches the soft touch sensor (scale bar = 10 mm). h The soft touch sensor reserves high structural integrity under stretching, bending, and twisting deformation.
