About
Xinge Yu is a pioneering researcher at the forefront of flexible and wearable electronics, with particular expertise in electronic skin, human-machine interfaces (HMIs), and soft robotics. His work addresses one of the most pressing challenges in modern technology: creating intimate, intelligent connections between the human body and digital or robotic systems. Yu's most celebrated contribution — his 2022 paper on electronic skin as wireless HMIs for robotic VR (284 citations) — demonstrated how soft, body-conformable electronics could enable seamless teleoperation of robots, a breakthrough with profound implications for healthcare and pandemic response. Building on this, his research into haptic feedback textiles, stretchable perovskite displays, and neuromorphic tactile systems reflects a comprehensive vision for next-generation wearables that see, feel, and communicate. Notably, Yu has tackled fundamental engineering barriers — breathability in haptic wearables, self-powered wireless sensing, and multicolour stretchable displays — producing solutions that balance mechanical deformability with real-world practicality. His origami-inspired soft robotics and bio-inspired 3D tracking systems further showcase his interdisciplinary creativity. With over 1,000 cumulative citations across his top works, Yu's research is rapidly shaping the future of intelligent, body-integrated technology.
