“…Radio frequency (RF) is another network protocol which is used by different flexible acoustic resonators for data transmission [91]. For example, ECG monitoring systems have used Tmote Sky platform which has an 802.15.4 radio interface at 250 Kbps [92]. Wireless physiological management system (WPMS) was introduced [93] which defines carrying the real-time physiological measurement data wirelessly from the medical sensors to the processing unit.…”

Abstract-The paper provides a review on some of the significant research work done on wearable flexible sensors (WFS). Sensors fabricated with flexible materials have been attached to a person along with the embedded system to monitor a parameter and transfer the significant data to the monitoring unit for further analyses. The use of wearable sensors has played a quite important role to monitor physiological parameters of a person to minimize any malfunctioning happening in the body. The paper categorizes the work according to the materials used for designing the system, the network protocols and different types of activities that were being monitored. The challenges faced by the current sensing systems and future opportunities for the wearable flexible sensors regarding its market values are also briefly explained in the paper.

The perspective article provides a detailed description of the major developments in the field of wearable biofuel cells. The article expounds several attributes of this newly emerging technology and its potential to address the energy needs of wearable devices. In addition to discussing important milestones reached in this field, the article also highlights the grand challenges that are presently hindering further development of wearable biofuel cells. Particular emphasis has been devoted to major issues related to biofuel cell stability, need for generating stable, high levels of power, mechanical compliance and resiliency and device aesthetics. In addition to this, the article also offers multiple pathways to address these issues. The article aims at generating interest among researchers with diverse expertise to come together on a common platform to overcome the major challenges faced by the field of wearable biofuel cells. Such collaborative efforts will be essential for the success of wearable biofuel cells and to harness their full potential. Why Biofuel Cells for Wearable Applications?Recent development of bio-integrated wearable electronics that provide continuous information, 1,2 entertainment, 3,4 help in carrying out routine activities 5 are a result of our insatiable desire to develop technologies that make lives easy. The nascent field of body-bound electronics is still is in its infancy and there exists several challenges that ought to be addressed for successful adaptation of the technology by various market segments. [6][7][8][9] Identifying suitable wearable energy sources is one of the biggest omnipresent challenge that cuts across almost all wearable electronics fields. 10 The situation is getting further exacerbated as the field of wearable electronics advances toward developing tiny, yet complex, multi-tasking wearable devices that continuously require high levels of energy supply for optimal performance. Research efforts to overcome this issue can be broadly classified into developing low-energy electronics, 11 adaptive algorithms for intelligent, low-power consuming electronics 12 and high energy density power sources. 13 Of these, development of efficient power sources has attained the greatest attention. Usage of conventional power sources, such as, lithium ion and alkaline batteries result in increased bulkiness and rigidity of the wearable electronics wherein just a fraction of the device weight is due to electronics while the rest is because of the battery. Such integration of conventional power sources with wearable electronics thus vitiates the overall attractiveness of the wearable system. Hence, there has been a genuine effort within the scientific community toward developing new formats of power sources for wearable applications. One of the most obvious and widely explored avenues is the development of thin, flexible and even stretchable batteries and supercapacitors that can be easily mated with the human body.14-16 Such body-compliant energy storage systems are quite attracti...
