In the wearable systems for biofluids, microfluidics has been used for transport of the biofluids to the embedded sensors. In our work, we are developing a method of integrating digital microfluidics with capillary phenomena, with the high functionality, compactness, and 3D liquid manipulation for wearable systems.
