Resurrecting extinct cephalopods with biomimetic robots to explore hydrodynamic stability, maneuverability, and physical constraints on life habits.

Scientific reports Jul 4, 2022
Externally shelled cephalopods with coiled, planispiral conchs were ecologically successful for hundreds of millions of years. These animals displayed remarkable morphological disparity, reflecting comparable differences in physical properties that w...

Artificial neuromorphic cognitive skins based on distributed biaxially stretchable elastomeric synaptic transistors.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America Jun 1, 2022
Cephalopod (e.g., squid, octopus, etc.) skin is a soft cognitive organ capable of elastic deformation, visualizing, stealth, and camouflaging through complex biological processes of sensing, recognition, neurologic processing, and actuation in a nonc...

Redundancy and overactuation in cephalopod-inspired soft robot arms.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Mar 18, 2022
Current soft robotic arms commonly follow traditional-i.e. hard-robot design conventions. Omnidirectional soft arms most commonly consist of segments that contain three parallel longitudinal actuators, or actuator groups, of which one or two are acti...
