Flexible electrode as a revolutionary brain computer interface (BCI) technology in the field of neural engineering, has achieved high-fidelity acquisition and long-term stable transmission of electroencephalographic signals through their exceptional bio-compatibility. This review systematically elucidates the design paradigms and material innovation systems of flexible electrodes, focusing on their transitional medical value from aspects such as electrode materials, signal acquisition and processing. It identifies the current technical bottlenecks that urgently need to be broken through and outlines the future development directions, hoping to provide a systematic technical road-map and evaluation framework for the technical development of next-generation BCI.
