Donghua University spins transistors into soft fibers for robot sensing

Researchers at Donghua University have developed a novel method for creating soft, continuous fibers embedded with electronic components. Using microfluidic spinning, they can integrate transistors, inverters, and spatial sensors directly into these fibers. This technology holds potential for advanced applications in robotics, enabling more sophisticated sensing and touch-free control systems. AI

IMPACT Enables new forms of tactile sensing and control for AI-powered robots.
