“…Flexible and stretchable electronics [172,173] have been largely used in the developing these devices. Apart from the mechanical advantages served by these flexible substrates, these devices also consume considerably much lesser power [174], which makes them a preferable choice for ubiquitous monitoring purposes. Apart from serving the dual purpose in terms of monitoring, these devices also cut shorts the problems faced due to the limited lifetime of the sensors and energy storage capabilities of the attached energy supplying devices [175].…”

Abstract-The paper provides a review on some of the significant research work done on wearable flexible sensors (WFS). Sensors fabricated with flexible materials have been attached to a person along with the embedded system to monitor a parameter and transfer the significant data to the monitoring unit for further analyses. The use of wearable sensors has played a quite important role to monitor physiological parameters of a person to minimize any malfunctioning happening in the body. The paper categorizes the work according to the materials used for designing the system, the network protocols and different types of activities that were being monitored. The challenges faced by the current sensing systems and future opportunities for the wearable flexible sensors regarding its market values are also briefly explained in the paper.

Emerging health monitoring bioelectronics require energy storage units with improved stretchability, biocompatibility, and self‐charging capability. Stretchable supercapacitors hold great potential for such systems due to their superior specific capacitances, power densities, and tissue‐conforming properties, as compared to both batteries and conventional capacitors. Despite the rapid progress that has been made in supercapacitor research, practical applications in health monitoring bioelectronics have yet to be achieved, requiring innovations in materials, device configurations, and fabrications tailored for such applications. In this review, the progress in stretchable supercapacitor‐powered health monitoring bioelectronics is summarized and the required specifications of supercapacitors for different types of application settings with varying demands on biocompatibility are discussed, including nontouching wearables, skin‐touching wearables, skin‐conforming wearables, and implantables. The perspective of this review is then broadened to focus on integration of stretchable supercapacitors in bioelectronics and aspects of energy harvesting and sensing. Finally further insights on the existing challenges in this developing field and potential solutions are provided.

“…Once the wrong gesture or movement is detected, it will automatically send feedback to the mobile device host, and the coach can remotely guide learners through postures and movements. A. U. Alahakone et al [4] put forward the method of gait research and rehabilitation, and achieved the effect of scientific gait training by using inertial sensor technology to identify toe-off and landing on the heel when exercising on a treadmill. In the research of virtual reality technology in physical education [5][6][7], Lin Zhang et al [8] and Xu Lanjun [9] discussed the application of sports simulation technology and tactics in basketball teaching practice and volleyball teaching, respectively; In the field of campus sports simulation, Liu Heng et al [10] focused on how to stimulate students' independent learning.…”

Abstract-In order to visualize the physical education classroom in school, we create a visualized movement management system, which records the student's exercise data efficiently and stores data in the database that enables virtual reality client to call. Each individual's exercise data are gathered as the source material to study the law of group movement, playing a strategic role in managing physical education. Through the combination of wearable devices, virtual reality and network technology, the student movement data (time, space, rate, etc.) are collected in real time to drive the role model in virtual scenes, which visualizes the movement data. Moreover, the Markov chain based algorithm is used to predict the movement state. The test results show that this method can quantize the student movement data. Therefore, the application of this system in PE classes can help teacher to observe the students' real-time movement amount and state, so as to improve the teaching quality.
