A skin‐conformal wearable device based on laser‐induced graphene is developed for continuous strain measurement across the circumference of the forearm for gesture recognition and hand‐tracking applications. Post material optimization, the strain sensor array is integrated with a wearable wireless readout circuit for real‐time control of a robotic arm,

Gait Assistive Exoskeleton Device For Semi Paralyzed Stroke Survivors
dominant human gait could be a dynamic and time crucial activity and so it needs a true time management surroundings. the most objective is to regain the walking ability for semi-paralyzed stroke affected patients and to assist them walk severally with none support. MEMS measuring device device senses the walking movements of the patient’s healthy leg.

Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.
