Force–Displacement Characterization of PNIPAM Microactuators
A method to experimentally establish a force–displacement diagram of poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) microactuators, printed by 2PP, is presented herein. PNIPAM is a hydrogel whose volume and stiffness change with temperature due to the absorption or release of water.

Shear‐Isolating Actuation System for Exosuit Using Movable Pulley With Webbing‐Driven Mechanism
Tendon‐driven exosuits can chafe the skin because the moving tendon slides against the wearer. A shear‐isolating actuation system combining a movable pulley with flat‐profile webbing keeps the body‐contacting tendon layer stationary, relocating relative motion away from the skin. The compact 145‐g actuator delivers 150 N of assistance, and benchtop and
