A Bioinspired Underwater Soft Robot for Active Intravesical Liquid Delivery and Mixing
A bioinspired underwater soft robot is reported that integrates an elastic strain energy‐driven soft robotic pump with a programmable flexible magnetic valve, enabling remotely controlled, programmable, and sustained liquid release and mixing. This functionality is enabled by the synergistic integration of elastic strain energy‐driven pumping and ...

Fatigue‐Driven Adaptive Assistance for a Semi‐Active Upper‐Limb Occupational Exoskeleton
Physical fatigue during a physical activity is estimated in real time to enable adaptive exoskeleton assistance. By continuously adjusting the level of support according to the user’s fatigue, this approach reduces physical demand and provides a pathway toward personalized exoskeleton assistance.

Continuous and Large‐Scale: ELEANOR, the Soft Architected Arm Inspired by the Elephant Trunk
A large‐scale, architected continuum robot inspired by the macroscopic properties of the African elephant trunk achieves adaptive elephant‐like movements and whole‐body grasping. The results demonstrate that designing from the natural system’s macroscopic properties, rather than prescribing behaviors, provides a powerful strategy for developing ...

Motion artifacts in electrocardiographic signals, conventionally dismissed as noise, are shown to encode discriminative activity information. A smart t‐shirt fusing textile strain sensors with textile ECG electrodes, processed through a complex‐valued residual network, recognizes 12 sport activities.

Accelerating Musculoskeletal Robotics Through Parametric Design and 3D‐Printed Flexible Structures
Parametric design and flexible 3D printing create muscle‐, tendon‐, ligament‐, and cushion‐like robotic elements from a single thermoplastic polyurethane material. Tuning lattice patterns adjusts regional mechanical properties and enables coordinated multijoint motions in a life‐sized musculoskeletal leg under external suspension, with partial body ...

An Integrated Fabric‐Pneumatic Soft Sensing System for Multi‐Site Muscle Activity Decoding
Fabric‐pneumatic chambers convert muscle deformation into pressure signals without electronics at the body‐contact sensing interface. A unified processing pipeline enables static posture classification, continuous elbow‐angle estimation, forearm gesture recognition, and knee‐movement detection across three anatomical sites.

ABSTRACT Detailed clinical phenotypes have been previously reported for 33 individuals with X‐linked HNRNPH2‐related neurodevelopmental disorder. Of these, 75% self‐reported a musculoskeletal abnormality, including hip dysplasia, scoliosis, kyphosis, lordosis, pes planus, arthritis, and missing spinous processes.
