MIT Develops Soft, Shape-Sensing Sheet for Real-Time Movement Tracking

#optical fibers #shape sensing #soft robotics

MIT engineers developed a soft, shape-sensing sheet using bidirectional optical fibers that digitally reconstructs its 3D form in real time as it bends and twists. The technology enables applications in wearable health monitoring, virtual reality, and robotics with enhanced durability against physical damage.
