Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Post‐Processing Strengthened 3D Artificial Fingertip with Multi‐Intensity Pain Perception

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The 3D multi‐intensity pain‐perceptive artificial fingertip (HBAF) is designed, whose mechanical and conductive properties are highly improved via novel post‐processing. With the soft adhesive gel layer, which is grown on the base of HBAF, it is seamlessly assembled with the robotic hand and further evaluates the safe factor of gripping.
