About
Shengping Dai is a leading researcher in the development of advanced soft materials for wearable electronics, soft robotics, and intelligent sensing systems. His work focuses on creating stretchable, self-healing, and highly sensitive materials that mimic human skin and muscle. Dai’s major contributions include the design of a self-healing conductive and stretchable aligned carbon nanotube/hydrogel composite with a sandwich structure (53 citations), which has been pivotal for human-motion sensors and healthcare monitoring. He also developed CNTs-based capacitive stretchable pressure sensors (44 citations) and high-sensitivity flexible tri-axial capacitive tactile sensors (39 citations) for object grab sensing, demonstrating exceptional performance in electronic skin systems. Notably, his sunlight-driven continuous flapping-wing motion (38 citations) represents a breakthrough in light-driven actuators, enabling wireless, controllable mechanical work. Dai’s recent work on monodomain liquid crystal elastomer bionic muscle fibers (30 citations) achieved a record reversible contraction ratio of 55.6%, advancing artificial muscle technology. With over 300 total citations, his innovations in hydrogel-based pressure and strain sensors (36 citations) and dual conductive layer dome-based sensors (32 citations) have set new standards for sensitivity and linear range, making him a key figure in next-generation flexible electronics.
