About
Luisa Petti is a leading figure in the field of flexible and printed electronics, with a particular focus on soft robotics, wearable sensors, and magnetic field sensing. Her pioneering work includes the development of the first entirely flexible, on-site conditioned magnetic field sensor system, which integrates a giant magnetoresistive bridge with high-performance IGZO-based readout electronics. This breakthrough, published in 2016 and cited 47 times, outperforms commercial rigid magnetic sensors, marking a significant step toward fully flexible, high-performance electronic systems. Petti has also advanced the field of self-healing materials, exemplified by her 2023 work on silicone/carbon black-filled elastomer-based strain sensors, which combine high stretchability with self-healability—a highly desirable trait for healthcare monitoring and electronic skins. Her contributions to printing technologies for soft robotics, published in 2021, further underscore her impact on next-generation, conformable devices. With a citation record that reflects the growing importance of flexible electronics, Petti’s research continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in wearable and implantable technology, making her a key innovator in the transition from rigid to soft, adaptive electronic systems.
