4D–Printed Photothermally Actuated Soft Microgripper on an Optical Fiber Tip for Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
In this study, we developed a light–driven soft microgripper by 3D–printing a photo–crosslinkable, temperature–responsive hydrogel with embedded silver particles onto an optical fiber tip. The microgripper actuates via photothermal effects at cell culture temperature and can gently grasp spheroids without minimal damage, offering a compact, actuator ...

Thermoresponsive Self‐Healing Carbon Nanotube‐Reinforced Dual‐Network Hydrogels for Wearable Sensors and Information Concealment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A CNT‐reinforced dual‐network hydrogel combines ionic liquid‐mediated thermoresponsiveness, dynamic covalent crosslinking, and conductive nanostructures within a single adaptive material. The hydrogel exhibits ultrafast gelation, autonomous self‐healing, >1000% stretchability, reversible optical switching, and stable electromechanical sensing, enabling

Gait Analysis of Pak Biawak: A Necrobot Lizard Built using the Skeleton of an Asian Water Monitor (Varanus Salvator)

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.
