Wearable robots are undergoing a disruptive transition, from the rigid machines that
populated the science-fiction world in the early 1980s to lightweight robotic apparel, hardly …

Wearable e-textiles are able to perform electronic functions and are perceived as a way to
add features into common wearable textiles, building competitive market advantages. The e …

There is much interest in form-fitting, low-modulus, implantable devices or soft robots that
can mimic or assist in complex biological functions such as the contraction of heart muscle …

We present the design and evaluation of a multi-articular soft exosuit that is portable, fully
autonomous, and provides assistive torques to the wearer at the ankle and hip during …

We describe the design and control of a wearable robotic device powered by pneumatic
artificial muscle actuators for use in ankle–foot rehabilitation. The design is inspired by the …

We describe the design, fabrication, and calibration of a highly compliant artificial skin
sensor. The sensor consists of multilayered mircochannels in an elastomer matrix filled with …

Wearable robots based on soft materials will augment mobility and performance of the host
without restricting natural kinematics. Such wearable robots will need soft sensors to monitor …

Exosuits show much promise as a method for augmenting the body with lightweight,
portable, and compliant wearable systems. We envision that such systems can be further …

In this paper we present a soft lower-extremity robotic exosuit intended to augment normal
muscle function in healthy individuals. Compared to previous exoskeletons, the device is …

Liquid-phase electronic circuits are patterned on an elastomer substrate with a microcontact
printer. The printer head dips into a pool of a liquid-phase gallium–indium alloy, eg, eutectic …
