Microfluidic Valve‐Integrated Garment for Smooth Sequential Gradient Mechanotherapy
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.We present a soft wearable sleeve that delivers smooth, gap‐free compression using overlapping air‐filled actuators and tiny microfluidic valves. The system reduces bulk, lowers power needs, and uses a smartphone‐sized control box. It can provide sequential gradient compression, gradient pressure holding, and fast deflation, supporting more portable ...

A Soft Robotic Jellyfish with Decoupled Actuators for Agile 3D Locomotion
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a soft robotic jellyfish featuring a functionally decoupled actuation architecture. By separating propulsion, steering, and vertical regulation into independent modules, the robot overcomes conventional coupled‐motion limitations. Utilizing a passive‐valve‐based differential drag strategy and lateral water jets, it achieves agile 3D
