About

Seongkyu Cho has pioneered the development of skin-integrated electronics for human-machine interaction and rehabilitation. His most recognized work introduces an ultrathin, conformal epidermal platform that uniquely combines electrotactile stimulation with electromyography, temperature, and strain sensing—all in a single, simple device. This breakthrough, published in 2015 and garnering 298 citations, enables simultaneous sensorimotor prosthetic control, management of lower back exertion, and electrical muscle activation. Cho’s contributions lie at the intersection of soft materials, bioelectronics, and neural interfacing, demonstrating how wearable systems can restore sensory feedback and monitor physiological states in real time. His research has significant implications for prosthetics, rehabilitation, and assistive technologies, offering a pathway toward more natural and intuitive human-machine interfaces. By integrating multiple sensing and stimulation modalities into a flexible, skin-conformal form factor, Cho has advanced the practical deployment of electronic skins for clinical and athletic applications. His work continues to influence the design of next-generation wearable bioelectronic systems aimed at enhancing human sensorimotor function.
