Innovative Soft Systems
Exploring the intersection of soft robotics, flexible electronics, and smart materials to create intelligent systems capable of active deformation.
Self-bendable Film
Combining shape memory alloy (SMA) wires with self-bendable substrates enables reversible bending and unbending under electrical control, providing a platform for flexible electronics.
Multi-channel Bendable Film
Combining locally bent SMA wires with flexible films featuring metal traces allows control of actuation regions and bending directions through electrical input, with adjustable curvature.
Soft Robotic Flatworm
A multi-channel robot that moves in desired directions through reinforcement learning-based control strategies, mimicking biological tissue and brain structure.
Multi-channel Morphing Sheet
Combining dielectric elastomer actuators (DEA) with multi-channel metal pads on a film enables shape morphing control through voltage input.
