The Future of Flexible Hybrid Electronics
According to IDTechEx, flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) is to grow in complexity, from the simple RFID tags of today to the complex FHE of the future, enabling applications in smart packaging, industrial monitoring and wearable devices.
Wearable applications, particularly skin patches, are likely to dominate, initially with smart packaging applications, then rapidly increasing from around 2025.
FHE is a clear new way of integrating electronics into things, as related in this article by SME.
