From Knitting Technology to Robotics: Untethered Thermally Actuated Textile Exoskeleton for Dexterity Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A textile‐based exoskeleton glove with integrated thermally driven actuators achieves rapid, low‐power response for dexterous motion. Utilizing advanced knitting methods, embedded heaters, and hybrid yarn sensors, the glove bends in a segmented fashion under 12 s at only 10.8 W and 48 °C.

A Single‐Component Adhesive Sponge Based on Blood‐Triggered and Autopenetrative Adhesion for Robust Vascular Closure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents MonoSeal, a single‐component adhesive sponge powered by the novel Autopenetrative Adhesion (APA) mechanism. Unlike traditional adhesives, which require external stimuli, APA enables strong tissue adhesion under dynamic, high‐pressure bleeding conditions. MonoSeal's ability to autonomously seal large‐size arterial defects underscores

PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.

Fully Transparent Haptic Interface for High‐Resolution Tactile Feedback on Touchscreens

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrating haptic feedback into touchscreens—enabling users to feel what they see on screen—has been a longstanding goal. In this article, B. Shan et al develop a transparent morphable haptic interface that transforms touchscreens into finely detailed, programmable morphable surfaces, enabling more effective and immersive human‐computer interaction ...
