Skin is the largest organ, with the functionalities of protection, regulation, and sensation. The
emulation of human skin via flexible and stretchable electronics gives rise to electronic skin …

Commercial prosthetic devices currently do not provide natural sensory information on the
interaction with objects or movements. The subsequent disadvantages include …

Sophisticated sensing and actuation capabilities of many living organisms in nature have
inspired scientists to develop biomimetic somatosensory soft robots. Herein, the design and …

With the help of machine learning, electronic devices—including electronic gloves and
electronic skins—can track the movement of human hands and perform tasks such as object …

Recent work has begun to explore the design of biologically inspired soft robots composed
of soft, stretchable materials for applications including the handling of delicate materials and …

Individuals who have lost the use of their hands because of amputation or spinal cord injury
can use prosthetic hands to restore their independence. A dexterous prosthesis requires the …

Medical robots are invaluable players in nonpharmaceutical treatment of disabilities.
Particularly, using prosthetic and rehabilitation devices with human–machine interfaces can …

Although familiar to each of us, the sensation of inhabiting a body is ineffable. Traditional
senses like vision and hearing monitor the external environment, allowing humans to have …

State monitoring of the complex system needs a large number of sensors. Especially,
studies in soft electronics aim to attain complete measurement of the body, mapping various …

Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the spinal cord restores locomotion in animal models
of spinal cord injury but is less effective in humans. Here we hypothesized that this …
