In one embodiment, a fluid transfer system comprises one or more fluid transfer components and one or more fluid input couplers or fluid output couplers. In one embodiment, the fluid transfer system delivers fluid to an active region, receives fluid from an active region, or passes a fluid through an active region using a fluid transfer component. In another embodiment, the fluid transfer component comprises film-based fluid channels converted from a first spatial arrangement geometry to a second spatial arrangement geometry different from the first spatial arrangement geometry. In another embodiment, the fluid transfer component comprises at least one of a fluid input coupler and fluid output coupler comprising a fluid channel geometry converter comprising re-arranged extended segments of a film comprising the active region fluid channels.
