Biomedical sensors have been essential in improving healthcare outcomes over the past 30 years, though limited power source access and user wearability restraints have prevented them from taking a constant and active biomedical sensing role in our daily lives. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have demonstrated exceptional capabilities and versatility in delivering self-powered and wear-optimized biomedical sensors, and are paving the way for a novel platform technology able to fully integrate into the developing 5G/Internet-of-Things ecosystem. This novel paradigm of TENG-based biomedical sensors aspires to provide ubiquitous and omnipresent real-time biomedical sensing for us all. In this review, we cover the remarkable developments in TENG-based biomedical sensing which have arisen in the last octennium, focusing on both in-body and on-body biomedical sensing solutions. We begin by …
