Bioinspired Moisture‐Driven Soft Robotic Actuator

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
In response to the evolving field of robotics, the demand for soft actuator materials has surged, prompting a shift toward biomimetic models, notably plant‐based actuators. The Arundo donax species exemplifies a unique hinged single‐unit actuation system and a combined mechanism utilizing atmospheric water content, offering multifunctional capabilities.

Normalized topological indices discriminate between architectures of branched macromolecules [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Branching architecture characterizes numerous systems, ranging from synthetic (hyper)branched polymers and biomolecules such as lignin, amylopectin, and nucleic acids to tracheal and neuronal networks. Its ubiquity reflects the many favourable properties that arise because of it.

Soft Robots Proprioception Through Stretchable Laser‐Induced Graphene Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
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 ...
