Organic optoelectronic devices that can be used to make compact, wearable sensors for medicine and sports are shown and two examples are given: a tissue‐oxygenation sensor and a muscle‐contraction sensor. It is demonstrated how the muscle‐contraction sensor on a volunteer's arm can successfully control the robot arm.
