Lab on a Chip, 2009
We present a rapid prototyping method for integrating functional components in conventional PDMS microfluidic devices. We take advantage of stop-flow lithography (D. Dendukuri, S. S. Gu, D. C. Pregibon, T. A. Hatton and P. S. Doyle, Lab Chip, 2007, 7, 818)(1) to achieve the in situ fabrication of mobile and deformable elements with a controlled ...

Disruptive, Soft, Wearable Sensors
Advanced Materials, 2019AbstractThe wearable industry is on the rise, with a myriad of technical applications ranging from real‐time health monitoring, the Internet of Things, and robotics, to name but a few. However, there is a saying “wearable is not wearable” because the current market‐available wearable sensors are largely bulky and rigid, leading to uncomfortable wearing

Soft haptics using soft actuator and soft sensor
2016 6th IEEE International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics (BioRob), 2016In this paper, we presented fabric-based soft tactile actuator and soft sensor. The force characterization result indicates that the actuator is able to produce force up to about 2.20(±0.017)N, when it is supplied with 80kPa of pressurized air. Hence it is capable of producing sufficient amount of force, which surpasses the human's haptic perception ...

Soft tactile sensor and curvature sensor for caterpillar-like soft robot's adaptive motion
Proceedings of the 2019 International Conference on Robotics, Intelligent Control and Artificial Intelligence, 2019Soft robots are designed to interact safely with their environment and move through narrow place in a way a rigid robot cannot. In order for the soft robot to be completely soft, it should consist of as more as soft component. In this paper, a PneuNet soft robot imitating bionic caterpillar are fabricated.

Soft Sensor Network for Environmental Monitoring
2016This paper shows the application of a soft sensor network for the detection of meteorological events. A set of hard (real) sensor are placed in a territory, where they measure heterogeneous quantities. Starting from their measurements, a soft sensor network provides useful information coming from the data.

2008 7th World Congress on Intelligent Control and Automation, 2008
An improved least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) approach was proposed to overcome the drawback of ldquolosing sparsityrdquo in original LS-SVM. At the same time, real-coded genetic algorithm (RC-GA) was introduced to solve the difficult problem of parameters selection in LS-SVM.
