Octopus-Inspired Adhesive Electrode for EMG: IJIBC
A co-first-author study of an octopus-sucker-inspired microstructure that measures EMG signals on dry and wet skin.

A co-first-authored paper presents an octopus-inspired adhesive electrode whose microstructured suction architecture keeps conformal skin contact and stable EMG signals under both dry and wet conditions. It addresses the detachment and signal degradation that limit EMG-based control of prosthetics and wearable robots.
