In the era of ubiquitous computing with flourished visual displays in our surroundings, the
application of haptic feedback technology still remains in its infancy. Bridging the gap …

To create fully-soft robots, fully-soft actuators are needed. Currently, soft rotary actuator
topologies described in the literature exhibit low rotational speeds, which limit their …

Magnetorheological (MR) fluids have unique characteristics that make them well-suited for
soft robotic actuation systems. Two particularly interesting applications are bistable valves …

In this article, the multimaterial extrusion (M-MEX) technology is used to fabricate, in a single
step, a three-dimensional printed soft electromagnetic (EM) actuator, based on internal …

Electromagnetic actuators provide fast speed, large forces, high strokes, and wide
bandwidths. Most designs, however, are constructed from rigid components, making these …

Pneumatic-driven soft manipulator has great flexibility and adaptability, which makes it can
do some complex tasks that traditional robots can't do such as minimally invasive surgery …

Lifetime-reconfigurable soft robots have emerged as a new class of robots, emphasizing the
unmet needs of futuristic sustainability and security. Trigger-transient materials that can both …

Over the past decades, self-healing polymers have become increasingly popular due to their
unique ability to recover mechanical and functional properties after sustaining structural …

We propose a soft electromagnetic sliding actuator that provides various planar motions to
construct highly compliant actuation systems. The actuator is composed of a fully soft …

Existing magnetically actuated soft robots require an external magnetic field to generate
motion, limiting them to carefully controlled laboratory settings. Here, we introduce an …
