Stretchable electronics, also known as elastic electronics or elastic circuits, is a group of technologies for building electronic circuits by depositing or embedding electronic devices and circuits onto stretchable substrates such as silicones or polyurethanes, to make a completed circuit that can experience large strains without failure.
Electronic skin refers to flexible, stretchable and self-healing electronics that are able to mimic functionalities of human or animal skin. [1] [2] The broad class of materials often contain sensing abilities that are intended to reproduce the capabilities of human skin to respond to environmental factors such as changes in heat and pressure.
Wei Gao is a Chinese-American biomedical engineer who currently serves as a professor of medical engineering at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). [1] Gao has been a professor at Caltech since 2017 and is an associate editor of the journals Science Advances, Biosensors and Bioelectronics, npj Flexible Electronics (), Journal on Flexible Electronics (), and Sensors & Diagnosis ...
Promoted by the demand for wearable devices, graphene has been proved to be a promising material for potential applications in flexible and highly sensitive strain sensors. An environment-friendly and cost-effective method to fabricate large-area ultrathin graphene films is proposed for highly sensitive flexible strain sensor.
Robotic sensing is a subarea of robotics science intended to provide sensing capabilities to robots. Robotic sensing provides robots with the ability to sense their environments and is typically used as feedback to enable robots to adjust their behavior based on sensed input.

Flexible electronics, also known as flex circuits, is a technology for assembling electronic circuits by mounting electronic components on flexible plastic substrates, such as polyimide, PEEK or transparent conductive polyester [1] film.
We found the best technology for adults over 65 at CES this year. From AI aids to ‘aging in place’ smart home solutions, the annual tech show kept older users in mind.
The goal of soft robotics is the design and construction of robots with physically flexible bodies and electronics. In some applications, softness is restricted to a localized region of a machine. For example, rigid-bodied robotic arms can employ soft end effectors to gently grab and manipulate delicate or irregularly shaped objects. [ 3 ]
