Precision agriculture aims to increase crop yield while reducing the use of harmful chemicals, such as pesticides and excess fertilizer, using minimal, tailored interventions. However, these strategies are limited by factors such as sensor quality, w...
To enhance the adaptability of tree-climbing robots to changes in tree diameter and load capacity, an "I-shaped" pneumatic flexible tree - climbing robot was designed using self-developed pneumatic flexible joints and retractable needle anchors. The ...
In this work, we study the nonlinear dynamics of tail motion using numerical simulations and experiments. Our simulations are based on a discrete model comprising rigid cylinders (representing vertebrae) coupled by longitudinal, shear, and bending sp...
In response to the urgent issues faced by current bionic undulating fin robot propulsion mechanisms, such as low working efficiency, insufficient swimming speed, ignoring thickness parameters, and the need for further improvement in biomimetic degree...
The relationship between morphology and locomotion performance in amphibious fish remains poorly understood, particularly in axial-appendage-based and appendage-based movements. To address this, we introduce Polymander, a reconfigurable robot capable...
Flexible wearable devices demonstrate immense potential in healthcare and human-computer interaction, yet the development of high-performance flexible pressure sensors for these applications remains a pressing technical challenge. Inspired by the str...

Legged robots possess exceptional terrain adaptability, making them an ideal platform for outdoor exploration and cargo transport across complex terrains. The number and configuration of legs play a crucial role in their performance; however, most cu...
Industrial fungi are pivotal candidates for the production of a diverse array of bioproducts. To enhance their productivity, these strains are frequently subjected to genetic modifications. Following transformation, the selection of optimal productio...
As flexible and wearable electronics play more and more important role in smart watches, smart glass and virtual reality, and the power supply to the wearable electronics have been revealed more attentions for long-term usage and continuous healthy m...
Mammal-inspired quadruped robots excel in traversing diverse terrestrial terrains but often lack aquatic mobility, limiting their effectiveness in amphibious environments. To address this challenge, an amphibious robotic dog (ARD) was developed, inte...
