Abstract

Bioelectronics is a multidisciplinary field that seamlessly integrates the biological systems with electronic techniques, driving the progress in areas such as modern medication, military management and environmental monitoring. This paper explores the fundamental underlying the bioelectronic devices, viewing some recent advancement in biometric sensors that are central to their operation. By examining the recent research on the different applications of the bioelectronic devices, including medical diagnosis, real-time health monitoring and environmental detection, this paper provides some future prospect on this technique to address contemporary issues. In addition, paper discusses some main challenges it faces such as the biocompatibility and the efficiency to process enormous information. The transformative impact that bioelectronics provide enhance people’s understanding of the way humans interact with their own bodies and the external environment. This integration of biology and electronics also offers people a new insight on the biological process and revolutionize the way human use to treat disease and the environment detection.
