Aquatic ecosystems vital to biodiversity and climate change-such as coral reefs, kelp forests, and mangrove forests-are often cluttered with natural obstacles. To navigate these complex habitats, fish have evolved relatively small body sizes and outs...
This paper presents the design and fabrication of a compact underdriven bionic frog robot, which is inspired by the locomotion stance of a frog. The robot's hind legs were ingeniously built using an underdriven associative 8-bar linkage mechanism wit...
To enhance the motion flexibility and environmental adaptability of underwater robots, this study proposes a novel design, Seeker-M, inspired by the locomotion mechanism of the mantis shrimp. The robot imitates the mantis shrimp's multi-pleopod swimm...
In nature, the dynamic contraction and relaxation of muscle in animals provide the essential force and deformation necessary for diverse locomotion, enabling them to navigate and overcome environmental challenges. However, most autonomous robotic sys...
Tensegrity describes a structural principle featuring a self-stabilizing system that consists of continuous tension elements and discontinuous compression elements. This paper undertakes a comprehensive systematic review of the overall development st...
In pipe systems, the emergence of pipe-crawling robots (PCRs) has attracted significant attention for pipe inspection and repair applications. However, conventional PCRs are bulky and heavy, limiting their speed and adaptability, particularly in conf...
Biological organisms exhibit remarkable capabilities to dynamically adjust their physiological states through autonomous neural perception and adaptive locomotion, offering profound inspiration for the development of intelligent bionic systems. Parti...
Eels have attracted significant research interest because of their long-distance migration and high-endurance cruising behavior. An underwater eel-like robot design inspired by these creatures has the potential for high efficiency, strong maneuverabi...
The sensory nervous system in animals enables the perception of external stimuli. Developing an artificial sensory nervous system has been widely conducted to realize neuro-inspired robots capable of effectively responding to external stimuli. Howeve...
Precise forecasting of cancer outcomes is essential for medical professionals to assess the well-being of patients and develop customized therapeutic plans. Despite its importance, achieving precise forecasts remains a formidable challenge. To tackle...
