Abstract

Wearable biosensors can monitor biological vital signs of health continuously but require sustainable power technology to realize a paradigm shift towards connected healthcare anytime, anywhere. A recent article in Joule (Yin et al.) reports a fingertip-based self-powered wearable device that can harvest sustainable bioenergy more efficiently than previous technologies.
