Recent advancements in wearable electronics have significantly enhanced human–device interaction, enabling applications such as continuous health monitoring, advanced diagnostics, and augmented reality. While progress material science has improved the flexibility, softness, elasticity of these devices for better skin conformity, their optical properties, particularly transparency, remain relatively unexplored. Transparent offer distinct advantages: they allow non-invasive monitoring by a clear view biological systems improve aesthetics minimizing visual presence on skin, thereby increasing user acceptance. Hydrogels emerged key transparent due to high water content, excellent biocompatibility, tunable mechanical properties. Their inherent softness stretchability intimate, stable contact with dynamic surfaces. Furthermore, ability support ion-based conductivity is advantageous bioelectronic interfaces physiological sensors. Current research focused advancing hydrogel design resilience, conductivity, adhesion. The core components include sensors, energy storage devices, actuators, real-time displays. These must collectively balance efficiency, functionality, long-term durability. Practical span tracking medical imaging next-generation interactive Despite progress, challenges durability, scalable manufacturing, prolonged usability remain. Addressing limitations will be crucial future development transparent, functional, user-friendly electronics.
