| Popis: | Graphical abstract Background In recent years, health monitoring systems (HMS) have aroused great interest due to their broad prospects in preventive medicine. As an important component of HMS, flexible force sensors (FFS) with high flexibility and stretch-ability can monitor vital health parameters and detect physical movements. Aim of Review In this review, the novel materials, the advanced additive manufacturing technologies, the selective sensing mechanisms and typical applications in both wearable and implantable HMS are discussed. Key Scientific Concepts and important findings of Review We recognized that the next generation of the FFS will have higher sensitivity, wider linear range as well as better durability, self-power supplied and multifunctional integrated. In conclusion, the FFS will provide powerful socioeconomic benefits and improve people's quality of life in the future. |
