Biofeedback driven muscle coordination
Groups of muscles are recruited in various combinations to perform smooth, controlled limb movements. Within these muscle groups, the excitation of a single muscle is commonly the focus of manipulation when attempting to influence limb movement, but it is the coordinated excitation of multiple muscles (muscle coordination) that ultimately determines ...

Echinoderm‐Inspired Autonomy for Soft‐Legged Robots
Inspired by echinoderms, a modular soft robot achieves autonomous phototaxis without a central controller or explicit communication. Each limb independently adapts its actuation timing through local sensing and short‐term memory. Coordination emerges purely from physical interactions, demonstrating resilience to changes in morphology, environment, and ...

Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.
