Scalable High‐Force Zipping Electrostatic Actuators
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.An electrostatic actuator architecture is presented that combines high energy density with forces and strokes suited for wearable soft robotics. By folding patterned thin films into a scalable honeycomb of zipping units, performance becomes tunable through series–parallel design, achieving over 40 N and 28 J/kg.

Liquid Jetting‐Based Miniature Robotic Navigation in Confined Fluidic Spaces
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.We introduce a new class of liquid‐jetting‐based miniature robots (JetBots) ranging in size from mm‐to‐cm, featuring a unified approach in design, fabrication, and actuation. They demonstrate fast locomotion (30.3 cm/s), rapid steering (648.8°/s), and diverse functions, such as puncturing soft materials and unlimited cargo sampling and delivery, paving

Design‐for‐Benchmarking in Soft Robotics: Navigating Component‐System Dichotomy
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Soft robotics faces a profound evaluation challenge: the Component‐System Dichotomy, where isolated component tests fail to predict integrated performance. This article presents a systematic survey of critical reporting gaps across actuation, sensing, and control.

Compact Tubular Dielectric Elastomer Pump for Indoor Plants
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.This study develops a mountable rolled dielectric elastomer pump (MRDEP) using silicone films and MWCNT‐based electrodes. The MRDEP is completely soft, silent in operation, and easily mounted on a piping system. We use dry stacking methods, fabricate a multilayer dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA), and a pre‐straining process in one direction before ...
