Origami-like graphene oxide enables scalable soft robots with sensing
Source: interestingengineering.com · May 29, 2026
Summary
McGill engineers created ultra-thin graphene oxide sheets that fold like origami, enabling soft robots to walk, twist, and sense motion. This addresses the key scalability challenge in soft robotics by combining actuation and sensing in a single material.
