Tri‐WOB: A Bistability‐Driven Variable Stiffness Origami Structure for Soft Robotic Arms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inherent bistability in Waterbomb origami enables the Tri‐WOB to switch between compliant and stiff states. By stacking multiple modules, the robotic arm maintains stiffness without continuous energy input while achieving large contraction, free morphing, and load‐bearing/transportation capability.

Differential Tissue‐Coupled Powering for Battery‐Free Injectable Electroceuticals

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A thread‐like injectable neural stimulator is powered through differential tissue‐coupled powering (DTCP), which harvests RF‐frequency tissue potentials with an elongated receiver while preserving a injectable cross‐section. The system integrates an ASIC, stimulation electrodes, and a portable transmitter, enabling wireless peripheral nerve stimulation,

EndoTac: An Endoscopic Camera‐Based Tactile Sensor with High Sensitivity for Minimally Invasive Surgery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
EndoTac presents a trocar‐compatible endoscopic vision‐based tactile sensor that uses a convex mirror to enlarge side‐facing tactile coverage during minimally invasive vessel palpation. Distorted tactile images are unwarped and processed by a learning model to estimate vascular deformation, enabling sensitive, spatially distributed tactile perception ...

A Robotic Testing Platform for Pipelined Discovery of Resilient Dielectric Elastomer Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a robotic testing platform enabling high‐throughput, multi‐parameter lifetime mapping of linear dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs). By integrating programmable high‐voltage control and automated electromechanical measurements, the system identifies material and operating conditions that double actuator lifetime.

Performance Estimation and Ex Vivo Validation of Untethered Magnetic Robots in Soft Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents an empirical model that quantitatively predicts the step‐out frequency of screw‐type untethered magnetic robots (UMRs) in soft viscoelastic environments, including ex vivo brain tissue. By integrating key parameters into a dimensionless framework, the model enables estimation of robot performance across a range of biological ...
