Electronics circuitry is hard and rigid. We are not. And so a sea change is required if we want to make wearables that actually fit the human form.
Wrist-worn wearables only work as well as they do because there's a thin layer of relatively static human putty above our bones in this area. Try to produce a sensor for the neck or joints and you'll discover that today's wearables, small computers strapped onto pliant flesh, aren't up to the job.
Several stretchable solutions are in the works, though. Here are some of the most exciting and innovative projects to look out for.
