Smart Denture with Embedded Thin‐Film Temperature Sensors Patterned by Femtosecond Laser Pulse for Elderly Healthcare

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
We demonstrate the direct‐laser patterning of a gold thin film on polymethyl methacrylate to fabricate a temperature sensor for dentures. The temperature sensor‐embedded smart dentures are evaluated in an oral environment, enabling in‐situ monitoring for elderly healthcare.

Liquid Metal Reversible Contacts for Flexible Tactile Sensor with High Sensitivity and Wide Detection Range

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a novel flexible tactile sensor based on the unconventional reversible contact behavior between liquid metal droplets (LMDs), with high‐pressure sensitivity and a broad working range. The 2‐LMD‐based sensor is capable of monitoring human motion and physiological signals, while electrical impedance tomography enables precise shape and

Design, Modeling, and Control of a Soft Robotic Diaphragm‐Assist Device in a Respiratory Simulator

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A soft robotic diaphragm‐assist device using fabric‐based pneumatic actuators with a 2‐step control system to optimize synchronization and support is introduced. This system can detect the initiation of breathing to trigger assistance and regulate pressures to provide the correct level of inhalation augmentation. Validation and testing are completed on

Detecting the Difficult: An Intronic NPC1 Variant Hiding in Plain Sight

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An illustration of the importance of manual data review for identifying rare intronic variants adjacent to homopolymers is presented here. A 14‐year‐old male with Niemann‐Pick Type C disease confirmed biochemically was only found to have a heterozygous pathogenic variant by molecular analysis. A manual review of the Next Generation Sequencing (
