A Bistable Assistive Device for Wireless Control of a Dysfunctional Bladder Under Minimal Stress
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This paper presents a wireless system designed to restore bladder function in patients with an underactive bladder (UAB). The system features a multilayered structure, combining a pre‐shaped restoration layer with a spring‐based actuator. The system delivers 95–100% voiding efficiency within a 10‐s activation while ensuring minimal stress on the ...

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.A reconfigurable intelligent surface is proposed that can simultaneously anomalously reflect the light and sense the angle of arrival. An in situ optimization of either the currents flowing on array elements or the far field in the receiver direction realizes anomalous reflection and suppresses parasitic scattering.
