About
Lanlan Wu is a leading researcher in flexible electronics and tactile sensing, with a focus on developing advanced materials for electronic skin and human-machine interfaces. Her work centers on creating ultrathin, superhydrophobic sensors that can discriminate between normal and shear forces—a critical capability for dexterous robotic motion and wearable health monitoring. In her highly cited 2021 paper (45 citations), Wu introduced a novel flexible tactile sensor design that overcomes the challenge of combining mechanical robustness with high sensitivity, enabling precise force discrimination in real-time. She further advanced the field with her work on stretchable vertical graphene arrays for multifunctional electronic skin (30 citations), demonstrating how nanostructured carbon materials can achieve both stretchability and high-performance sensing. Wu’s contributions are pivotal for next-generation prosthetics, soft robotics, and smart wearables, where her sensors offer unprecedented durability and environmental resilience. Her research continues to push the boundaries of flexible electronics, making her a key figure in the development of intelligent, skin-like sensing systems.
