Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A multimodal quad‐finger soft robotic hand (QDO hand) uses dual‐chamber straight–curved origami prismatic (SCOP) origami actuators. By coordinating positive and negative pressurization in the two chambers, each finger produces axial extension, contraction and bidirectional bending.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A unified, reusable modeling pipeline enables task‐driven design of soft robots across actuator families and task scenarios. High‐fidelity simulations are compressed into compact pseudo‐rigid‐body joint surrogates, while a design‐conditioned meta‐model generates new surrogates from geometry parameters without rerunning finite element method.

One‐Shot Multimaterial 3D Printing of a Flexible Spine for a Robotic Fish Prototype
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A one‐shot multimaterial 3D printing approach enables a monolithic soft robotic fish integrating a compliant spine and rigid vertebrae. Electromagnetic linear actuators drive tendon‐based transmission, producing controlled tail oscillations. Finite element modeling and experiments show strong agreement, while optimized material selection improves ...

A Two‐Stage Characterization Pipeline and Open‐Source Framework for Reproducible Tactile Sensing
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.The same soft tactile sensor returns different numbers when embodied in different robots. This is an Embodiment Gap that no shared framework currently captures transparently. A two‐stage characterization pipeline, paired with a FAIR open‐source digital datasheet, decouples intrinsic sensor behavior from embodiment effects and condenses cross‐laboratory
