This paper delves deeply into the innovative realm of integrating human emotions with wearable technology. The primary focus is on the conceptualization and development of a kiss transfer device that harnesses the power of wearable technology to bridge the physical gap in human-human interactions. By investigating the intricate nuances of the human-human kissing process, the research seeks to replicate this intimate gesture through a technological medium. The paper not only elaborates on the anatomy, evolution, and hormonal dynamics of kissing but also underscores the transformative potential of wearable technology in capturing and transmitting these intimate moments. This exploration opens up new horizons for long-distance relationships, offering a tangible touchpoint that goes beyond traditional communication methods. Through this pioneering work, the research positions wearable technology as not just a tool for communication but as an extension of our human emotions and expressions.

Abstract
Organic electrochemical transistors are flexible in design with characteristics such as miniaturisation, biocompatibility and amplification and are one of the rapidly developing research topics in recent years. As an excellent flexible material, fibre has unparalleled advantages in weaving and compatibility with the human body. Combining fibres with organic electrochemical transistors is a promising research direction that has the high sensitivity of organic electrochemical transistor testing and the human body compatibility and flexibility of wearable electronic products. This paper introduces the relevant operating principles, working modes and commonly used channel materials of organic electrochemical transistors. Based on the basic device structure of organic electrochemical transistors, the development and changes of organic electrochemical transistors in recent years are discussed, and the research results of fibre-based electrochemical transistors by researchers focusing on the application of fibre-based organic electrochemical transistors in chemical sensing, bio-sensing and other application explorations are summarized. Finally, this paper visioned the future development trend of fibre-based organic electrochemical transistors.
