Smart and Connected Wearable Electronics: Nanomanufacturing, Soft Packaging, and Healthcare Devices is an introduction to the latest advances in nanomaterial printing technologies and soft material packaging of wearable electronics for healthcare applications. Sections introduce the whole range of nanomanufacturing technologies, both conventional and emerging being employed to produce soft healthcare devices, describe the strategies to package and assemble individual components with various form factors and properties toward fully functional soft wearable systems, and introduce a number of healthcare applications based on recent advances in soft wearable systems.

This book addresses critical advances in research to help enable the translation to functional commercial products. For example, the book introduces the methods with which different components are packaged to reveal mechanical compliance and robustness. It will be a welcomed addition as a go-to reference for conducting research in academia or working in the commercial sector.
