Multi-dimensional accurate response and smooth signal transmission are critical challenges in the advancement of multi-resolution recognition and complex environment analysis. Inspired by the structure-activity relationship between discrepant microstructures of the spiral and radial threads in a spider web, we designed and printed graphene with porous and densely-packed microstructures to integrate into a multi-resolution graphene tactile sensor. The three-dimensional (3D) porous graphene structure performs multi-dimensional deformation responses. The laminar densely-packed graphene structure contributes excellent conductivity with flexible stability. The spider-web inspired printed pattern inherits orientational and locational kinesis tracking. The multi-structure construction with homo-graphene material can integrate discrepant electronic properties with remarkable flexibility, which will attract enormous attention for electronic skin, wearable devices and human-machine interactions.
