Skin-interfaced electronics (skintronics) have received considerable attention due to their thinness, skin-like mechanical softness, excellent conformability, and multifunctional integration. Current advancements in skintronics have enabled health monitoring and digital medicine. Particularly, skintronics offer a personalized platform for early-stage disease diagnosis and treatment. In this comprehensive review, we discuss (1) the state-of-the-art skintronic devices, (2) material selections and platform considerations of future skintronics toward intelligent healthcare, (3) device fabrication and system integrations of skintronics, (4) an overview of the skintronic platform for personalized healthcare applications, including biosensing as well as wound healing, sleep monitoring, the assessment of SARS-CoV-2, and the augmented reality-/virtual reality-enhanced human-machine interfaces, and (5) current challenges and future opportunities of skintronics and their potentials in clinical translation and commercialization. The field of skintronics will not only minimize physical and physiological mismatches with the skin but also shift the paradigm in intelligent and personalized healthcare and offer unprecedented promise to revolutionize conventional medical practices.
由于其轻薄、类皮肤的机械柔软性、出色的贴合性和多功能集成,皮肤界面电子学(skintronics)受到了广泛关注。当前 skintronics 的进展使得健康监测和数字医学成为可能。特别是,skintronics 为早期疾病诊断和治疗提供了个性化平台。在这篇全面的综述中,我们讨论了(1)最先进的 skintronic 器件,(2)未来 skintronics 向智能医疗保健的材料选择和平台考虑,(3)skintronics 的器件制造和系统集成,(4)个性化医疗保健应用的 skintronic 平台概述,包括生物传感以及伤口愈合、睡眠监测、SARS-CoV-2 评估和增强现实/虚拟现实增强的人机界面,以及(5)skintronics 的当前挑战和未来机遇及其在临床转化和商业化方面的潜力。skintronics 领域不仅将最小化与皮肤的物理和生理不匹配,还将改变智能和个性化医疗保健的范式,并为彻底改变传统医疗实践提供前所未有的前景。
