Soft Robots Proprioception Through Stretchable Laser‐Induced Graphene Strain Sensors
This study demonstrates the potential of laser‐induced graphene and silicone sensors for soft pneumatic grippers’ proprioception. The sensors are thin, stretchable, mechanically transparent, and easy to integrate. Finite‐element method analysis identifies the finger's neutral bending plane and four sensor positions are tested to validate the ...

Enhanced Actuation Stress in Variable Stiffness Liquid Crystal Elastomers
Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) filled with low‐melting‐point alloy particles exhibit a fivefold increase in actuation stress and tunable stiffness. At low filler concentrations, mechanically enhanced network entropy boosts force output, while higher concentrations enable variable stiffness. This composite design mimics muscle‐like behavior, advancing

Liquid metal “sloshing” by the robot's own actuator is proposed to improve the self‐healing performance. The proposed method drastically enhances the healed strength by decomposing the surface oxides and the impurities. The method contributes to the world's first demonstration of active self‐healing behavior performed by a life‐sized legged robot. Self‐
