Skin‐stimulation technology has attracted intense attention for virtual/augmented reality applications and tactile‐feedback systems. However, bulky, heavy, and stiff characteristics of existing skin‐stimulating devices limit their wearability and comfort, thus disturbing the immersive experience of users. This study presents a new type of thin and lightweight dielectric elastomer actuator for developing...
Dielectric Elastomer Actuators
In article number 2213589, Kilwon Cho and co‐workers report a flexible and skin‐mountable vibrotactile‐stimulator based on thin lateral dielectric elastomer actuators. The actuator shows a significant actuation at low operating voltage because of a laterally aligned dielectric multilayer structure with short dielectric distance and a soft elastomer/ionic liquid composite...
