Low‐Strain Flexible Ink‐Based Sensors Enable Hyperelastic Inflation Perception Via Geometric Patterning for Balloon‐Type Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Integrating proprioceptive capabilities in balloon‐type robots enhances safe human–machine interactions. Traditional pressure estimates are inadequate due to nonlinear relationships. Instead, embedding stretchable sensors effectively measures deformation. This design optimizes sensor geometry to minimize damage risks.

3D Elastomeric Kirigami for Passively Stretchable Fully Soft Vacuum‐Powered Artificial Muscles

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
The creation of purely soft, passively stretchable artificial muscles has long been a hot topic in robotics research. Here, we present a design approach involving the extension of 2D kirigami to 3D elastomeric kirigami structures. In a biomimetic demonstration of the human upper arm, this approach successfully simulated the driving mechanism ...

Inflatable Kirigami Crawlers

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Inflatable kirigami crawlers are fabricated from heat‐sealable textiles and achieve motion through cyclic pneumatic actuation. Strategically placed kirigami cuts guide asymmetric deformation, doubling contraction compared to traditional pouches and forming scale‐like surfaces.

Design Optimization of a Variable Stiffness Robotic Gripper with Passive Restoration Fabricated by Multimaterial 3D Printing

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A multimaterial robotic gripper fabricated via multimaterial 3D printing integrates conductive thermopolymer joints with flexible elastomeric components. Joule heating enables precise joint‐level stiffness modulation, enhanced by embedded temperature sensors, passive shape restoration, and active cooling, enabling versatile manipulation capabilities ...
