Bionic Sensors for Biometric Acquisition and Monitoring: Challenges and Opportunities.

The development of materials science, artificial intelligence and wearable technology has created both opportunities and challenges for the next generation of bionic sensor technology. Bionic sensors are extensively utilized in the collection and monitoring of human biological signals. Human biological signals refer to the parameters generated inside or outside the human body to transmit information. In a broad sense, they include bioelectrical signals, biomechanical information, biomolecules, and chemical molecules. This paper systematically reviews recent advances in bionic sensors in the field of biometric acquisition and monitoring, focusing on four major technical directions: bioelectric signal sensors (electrocardiograph (ECG), electroencephalograph (EEG), electromyography (EMG)), biomarker sensors (small molecules, large molecules, and complex-state biomarkers), biomechanical sensors, and multimodal integrated sensors. These breakthroughs have driven innovations in medical diagnosis, human-computer interaction, wearable devices, and other fields. This article provides an overview of the above biomimetic sensors and outlines the future development trends in this field.
