A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

Nanoparticle‐Mediated Bubble Suppression During Droplet Solidification for Mechanical Reinforcement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanoparticles mediate droplet solidification by raising nucleation temperature, refining dendrites, and slowing freezing‐front advance, thereby suppressing trapped air bubbles in droplet‐based 3D printing. This strategy reduces bubble volume fraction by ∼35% and increases compressive strength by up to 39%, offering a low‐cost route to stronger printed ...
