“…Vardar et al [115], [116] developed roughness and sharpness perception electrovibration touchscreens. Shultz et al [117] and Colgate et al [121] developed several EA surfaces or artificial finger devices to deliver haptic sensations for touchscreen applications [118]- [120], as shown in Fig. 11(b).…”

Electroadhesion (EA) is an electrically controllable adhesion mechanism that has been studied and used in fields including active adhesion and attachment, robotic gripping, robotic crawling and climbing, and haptics, for over a century. This is because EA technologies, compared to other existing adhesion solutions, facilitate systems with enhanced adaptability (EA is effective on a wide of range of materials and surfaces), reduced system complexity (EA systems are both mechanically and electrically simpler), low energy consumption, and less-damaging to materials (EA, combined with soft materials, can be used to lift delicate objects). In this survey, we comprehensively detail the working principle, modeling, design, fabrication, characterization, and applications of EA technologies employed in robotics, aiming to provide guidance and offer potential insights for future EA researchers and applicants. Joint and collaborative efforts are still required to promote the in-depth understanding and mature employment of this promising adhesion and gripping technology in various robotic applications.

“…One prominent approach involves lateral forces produced via electronic friction modulation. Friction modulation can be realized via friction reduction through ultrasonic vibrations [112,113,114], via forces produced through surface acoustic waves [115], or via electrostatically enhanced friction between the skin and surface [116,18] (Fig. 2.5J).…”

Through my entire PhD study, I learned a lot from my colleagues in the RE Touch Lab. Discussions with Gregory Reardon about technical problems, like in physics or statistics, are always constructive and inspiring. Shantonu Biswas and Thanh Nho Do influenced me with their expertise in nanoengineering and material science. Also, I am lucky to have many supportive colleagues and friends in the lab. Anzu Kawazoe can always cheer me up with her lighthearted mood, unveiling the optimistic side of life to me. Zach Wells and Harald Schafer, beside research collaborations, brought me a lot of fun outside the lab, directing me to the ocean around Santa Barbara. I also very enjoyed the company of Yufei Hao, Taku Hachisu, Simone Fani, Jasper van der Lagemaat and Behnam Khojasteh during their visit to my lab. Starting from the time I joined the lab in Philadelphia, I have been gaining support from Marco Janko and Bin Li. I am really v grateful to have all of them as my colleagues. My friends outside the lab also helped me passing through the challenging paths toward the finish line of my PhD. I want to give special thanks to Mingwei Tang, my friend since childhood, who also obtained a PhD degree in the US. We traveled together to many sights and cities. Those trips reduced my anxiety and rebuilt my courage to march forward. I also value the friendship with Yan Kong and Zhenyu Yang, who provided me after-work entertainment in Harold Frank hall, and emotional support. I miss and appreciate the time with Pingge Jiang, Lei Song, Tao Sun, Yaou Zhou and Yanan Yang during my study in Philadelphia.I appreciate the love, care and support from my girlfriend, Huihui Zhang, during the last two years of my PhD. A delightful, sweet talk with her can always relieve my stress and hearten me, motivating me to look beyond the difficulties.Finally, I like to thank my family, especially my grandmother. I grew up bathing in her unconditional love. She was always proud of me and had the strongest belief in me, from preschool till PhD, granting me the faith to overcome any challenges. I deeply regret not being able to spend enough time with her at home.

“…The measured signals are stored for further use, e.g., applying compression schemes, and subsequently displayed on the attached vibrotactile actuator for subjective evaluation of the recorded data trace, or, objective evaluation measurements using another acceleration sensor. On the other hand, electrostatic actuation has been investigated in multiple studies ( [21], [73]- [77]), or, ultrasonic actuations [78] as, e.g., the TPad Phone [22], the ultraShiver device [79], or combinations of these approaches [80], [81].…”
