Programmable Pneumatic Actuator System for a Bioinspired Artificial Colon
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A modular soft robotic colon simulator driven by programmable pneumatic actuation is developed to mimic physiological and pathological‐like motility patterns of the large intestine. Finite element–guided design and distributed control enable anatomically realistic deformation for peristalsis, segmentation, and mass movements, supporting capsule ...

Dynamic Disulfide Ionogels for Self‐Healing, Transparent, and Elastic E‐Skins
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A dynamic covalent ionogel is designed via polymer–ionic liquid interaction control. The interplay between ionic liquid compatibility, viscosity, and concentration governs polymer segmental dynamics, which in turn regulates disulfide exchange kinetics and mechanical durability.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This article presents dielectric elastomer switch (DES) materials, based on composite thin films. Alignment of graphite flakes due to their physical confinement within the thin films lead to much stronger piezoresistive responses than bulk composites, while their durability exceeds that of conventional liquid‐based DES materials.
