Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wearable technology with widespread public attention has generated tremendous economic and social impact, resulting in changes in healthcare procedures and personal lifestyles. Wearable sensing devices or systems, as an important type of component in wearable technology which can detect various stimuli relevant to biological species or specific environments, have recently seen a large increase in both commercialization and research. Over the past few years, the research direction in this field has focused mainly on the development of flexible, lightweight, self-powered, miniaturized, and integrated wearable systems. Until now, the key points of the above-mentioned studies are still an important direction for flexible electronics. Therefore, a Special Issue of flexible and wearable electronics from low-level devices to top-level systems is needed to further promote progress in this field. It is believed that this Special Issue will have a significant impact on many fields of flexible electronics, which is beneficial to promote the cross-integration of multiple fields and accelerate the development of flexible electronic devices.
