“…Electrical signals of the human body are defined as biopotentials. These biopotentials are small voltages that are generated by chemical actions taking place at the cellular level; their evaluation is essential for biological research and biomedical monitoring. , For example, electrocardiogram (ECG) and electromyogram (EMG), which are generated by the heart and muscles, respectively, have been widely adopted to diagnose heart arrhythmias and identify neuromuscular disorders, respectively. , Electroencephalogram (EEG) and electrocorticography (ECoG) are other remarkable biopotentials, and recordings of them are the basis of BCI. As the body may ideally be regarded as a volume conductor, biopotentials originating from the entire body travel across the entire skin surface and can therefore be recorded …”

Fibers, originating from nature and mastered by human, have woven their way throughout the entire history of human civilization. Recent developments in semiconducting polymer materials have further endowed fibers and textiles with various electronic functions, which are attractive in applications such as information interfacing, personalized medicine, and clean energy. Owing to their ability to be easily integrated into daily life, soft fiber electronics based on semiconducting polymers have gained popularity recently for wearable and implantable applications. Herein, we present a review of the previous and current progress in semiconducting polymer-based fiber electronics, particularly focusing on smart-wearable and implantable areas. First, we provide a brief overview of semiconducting polymers from the viewpoint of materials based on the basic concepts and functionality requirements of different devices. Then we analyze the existing applications and associated devices such as information interfaces, healthcare and medicine, and energy conversion and storage. The working principle and performance of semiconducting polymer-based fiber devices are summarized. Furthermore, we focus on the fabrication techniques of fiber devices. Based on the continuous fabrication of one-dimensional fiber and yarn, we introduce two-and three-dimensional fabric fabricating methods. Finally, we review challenges and relevant perspectives and potential solutions to address the related problems.
