Generative Adversarial Network Technologies and Applications in Computer Vision.
Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Aug 1, 2020
Computer vision is one of the hottest research fields in deep learning. The emergence of generative adversarial networks (GANs) provides a new method and model for computer vision. The idea of GANs using the game training method is superior to tradit...
Viscoelastic legs for open-loop control of gram-scale robots.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jul 29, 2020
Gram-scale insects, such as cockroaches, take advantage of the mechanical properties of the musculoskeletal system to enable rapid and robust running. Engineering gram-scale robots, much like their biological counterparts, comes with inherent constra...
In-plane gait planning for earthworm-like metameric robots using genetic algorithm.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jul 29, 2020
Locomotion of earthworm-like metameric robots results from shape changes of deformable segments. Morphologically, the segments could stretch, contract or bend by changing their states. Periodic shape changes are recognized as gaits of the robots. Rob...
Recent Progress of Soft Electrothermal Actuators.
Soft robotics
Jul 13, 2020
Developing soft electrothermal actuators (ETAs) has drawn extensive concern in recent years. This article presents a comprehensive review on recent progress of soft ETAs through five sections: device design on structure and materials, property, fabri...
Continuous models for peristaltic locomotion with application to worms and soft robots.
Biomechanics and modeling in mechanobiology
Jul 10, 2020
A continuous model for the peristaltic locomotion of compressible and incompressible rod-like bodies is presented. Using Green and Naghdi's theory of a directed rod, incompressibility is enforced as an internal constraint. A discussion on muscle actu...
The acoustic near-field measurement of aye-ayes' biological auditory system utilizing a biomimetic robotic tap-scanning.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jul 7, 2020
The aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) is best known for its unique acoustic-based foraging behavior called 'tap-scanning' or 'percussive foraging'. The tap-scanning is a unique behavior allowing aye-aye to locate small cavities beneath tree bark...
Longitudinal mode model-based controller design for tailless flapping wing robot with loop shaping compensator.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jul 7, 2020
In this study, the stable proportional-derivative (PD) controller gains for pitch control (longitudinal control) are obtained using the linearized and non-coupled longitudinal-mode flight dynamics model of the tailless, hover-capable, flapping wing r...
SBOR: a minimalistic soft self-burrowing-out robot inspired by razor clams.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jul 7, 2020
We observe that the Atlantic razor clam (Ensis directus) burrows out of sand rapidly by simply extending and contracting its muscular foot. This is notably different from its well-known downward burrowing strategy or the dual-anchor mechanism, where ...
Negshell casting: 3D-printed structured and sacrificial cores for soft robot fabrication.
PloS one
Jun 12, 2020
Soft robot fabrication by casting liquid elastomer often requires multiple steps of casting or skillful manual labor. We present a novel soft robotic fabrication technique: negshell casting (negative-space eggshell casting), that reduces the steps re...
Manufacturing, Control, and Performance Evaluation of a Gecko-Inspired Soft Robot.
Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
Jun 10, 2020
This protocol presents a method for manufacturing, control, and evaluation of the performance of a soft robot that can climb inclined flat surfaces with slopes of up to 84°. The manufacturing method is valid for the fast pneunet bending actuators in ...
