Description

Zhen-Ping Du and co-authors review in 2026 wearables built on water-rich gels that carry electric charge. Such gels feel like tissue yet conduct signals, which makes them a sweet spot for skin-tight health sensors. The review sorts how gel recipes and mixed nano fillers set charge flow, strength, and bend response, and how those traits shape device work.

Uses span fuel and heart tracking, nerve and sleep reads, wound care, and body mark sensing. The hard parts left are long-term steadiness, merging many signal kinds, and trust in the data. The authors look toward closed-loop gear that senses and acts in one loop, and they map what must be solved first.
