Visually guided swarm motion coordination via insect-inspired small target motion reactions.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Despite progress developing experimentally-consistent models of insect in-flight sensing and feedback for individual agents, a lack of systematic understanding of the multi-agent and group performance of the resulting bio-inspired sensing and feedbac...

Design of a bipedal robot for water running based on a six-linkage mechanism inspired by basilisk lizards.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Legged robots have received widespread attention in academia and engineering owing to their excellent terrain adaptability. However, most legged robots can only adapt to high-hardness environments instead of flexible environments. Expanding the motio...

Jellyfish-Inspired Soft Robot Driven by Pneumatic Bistable Actuators.

Soft robotics
Soft actuators offer numerous potential applications; however, challenges persist in achieving a high driving force and fast response speed. In this work, we present the design, fabrication, and analysis of a soft pneumatic bistable actuator (PBA) mi...

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Biomimetic neuromorphic sensing systems, inspired by the structure and function of biological neural networks, represent a major advancement in the field of sensing technology and artificial intelligence. This review paper focuses on the development ...

Biomimetic fusion: Platyper's dual vision for predicting protein-surface interactions.

Materials horizons
Predicting protein binding with the material surface still remains a challenge. Here, a novel approach, platypus dual perception neural network (Platyper), was developed to describe the interactions in protein-surface systems involving bioceramics wi...

A tactile sensing system capable of recognizing objects based on bioinspired self-sensing soft pneumatic actuator.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Tactile sensors play an important role when robots perform contact tasks, such as physical information collection, force or displacement control to avoid collision. For these manipulations, excessive contact may cause damage while poor contact cause ...

Intelligent Rock-Climbing Robot Capable of Multimodal Locomotion and Hybrid Bioinspired Attachment.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
Rock-climbing robots have significant potential in fieldwork and planetary exploration. However, they currently face limitations such as a lack of stability and adaptability on extreme terrains, slow locomotion, and single functionality. This study i...

Leading-edge curvature effect on aerodynamic performance of flapping wings in hover and forward flight.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This study investigates the role of leading-edge (LE) curvature in flapping wing aerodynamics considering hovering and forward flight conditions. A scaled-up robotic model is towed along its longitudinal axis by a rack gear carriage system. The forwa...

Bio-inspired design of hard-bodied mobile robots based on arthropod morphologies: a 10 year systematic review and bibliometric analysis.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This research presents a 10-year systematic review based on bibliometric analysis of the bio-inspired design of hard-bodied mobile robot mechatronic systems considering the anatomy of arthropods. These are the most diverse group of animals whose flex...

On the analysis and control of a bipedal legged locomotion model via partial feedback linearization.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
In this study, we introduce a new model for bipedal locomotion that enhances the classical spring-loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP) model. Our proposed model incorporates a damping term in the leg spring, a linear actuator serially interconnected to th...
