About
Michael Morikado is a leading innovator in the field of flexible and stretchable electronics, with a primary focus on developing advanced materials for wearable health monitoring and human-machine interfaces. His most celebrated contribution is the pioneering use of embedded 3D printing technology to create electronic skin (e-skin) that combines high sensitivity with exceptional durability and shock resistance. This breakthrough, detailed in his highly cited 2019 paper (82 citations), addresses a critical bottleneck in the field: the trade-off between sensor flexibility and long-term mechanical robustness. By engineering a low-cost, manufacturable platform that integrates both pressure and strain sensors, Morikado’s work has paved the way for practical applications in continuous human activity monitoring and personal healthcare. His research is instrumental in moving e-skin from the lab toward commercialization, offering a scalable solution for next-generation smart robotics and wearable diagnostics. Through this work, Morikado has established himself as a key figure in the quest for truly resilient and wearable electronic systems.
