Abstract

In recent years, wearable bioelectronics has rapidly expanded for diagnosing, monitoring, and treating various pathological conditions from the skin surface. Although the devices are typically prefabricated as soft patches for general usage, there is a growing need for devices that are customized in situ to provide accurate data and precise treatment. In this perspective, the state-of-the-art in situ fabricated wearable bioelectronics are summarized, focusing primarily on Drawn-on-Skin (DoS) bioelectronics and other in situ fabrication methods. The advantages and limitations of these technologies are evaluated and potential future directions are suggested for the widespread adoption of these technologies in everyday life.
