Toward Mechanochromic Soft Material‐Based Visual Feedback for Electronics‐Free Surgical Effectors

Toward Mechanochromic Soft Material‐Based Visual Feedback for Electronics‐Free Surgical Effectors

Abstract A chromogenically reversible, mechanochromic pressure sensor is integrated into a mininvasive surgical grasper compatible with the da Vinci robotic surgical system. The sensorized effector, also featuring two soft‐material jaws, encompasses a mechanochromic polymeric inset doped with functi...
