Robotic manipulation of human bipedalism reveals overlapping internal representations of space and time.

Science robotics
Effective control of bipedal postures relies on sensory inputs from the past, which encode dynamic changes in the spatial properties of our movement over time. To uncover how the spatial and temporal properties of an upright posture interact in the p...

Rat robot autonomous border detection based on wearable sensors.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Bio-robots, a novel type of robot based on a brain-machine interface, have shown great potential in search and rescue tasks. Current research is focused on the bio-robot itself, such as locomotion, localization and navigation, but lacks interactions ...

Design and analysis of a GaN-based 2D photonic crystal biosensor integrated with machine learning techniques for detection of skin diseases.

Scientific reports
Photonic crystals are prevalent in the detection of assorted diseases and malignancies such as vitiligo and cutis laxa. A 2D photonic crystal utilizing GaN is demonstrated to detect skin diseases, highlighting its substantial relevance to the photoni...

Dynamics and energetics of dual-spring force couples in torque reversal systems.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Latch-mediated spring actuation systems leverage the interplay of springs and latches to rapidly accelerate a load. In biological systems, elastic energy is often distributed across multiple structures, resulting in forces applied from multiple sprin...

Effective and comfortable chain-linking anchoring with anisotropic stiffness for soft wearable robots.

Scientific reports
This study presents a wearable robot equipped with a novel anchoring structure designed to improve both force transmission efficiency and user comfort. While soft wearable robots are inherently more comfortable than rigid exoskeletons, they often suf...

Robotic cross-pollination of genetically modified flowers.

Science robotics
Engineered tomato plants produced flowers with visible stigmas that a robot could detect and pollinate faster than a human.

Configuration design of ankle rehabilitation robots: a systematic review and future prospects.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Compared to traditional therapist-assisted rehabilitation training, ankle rehabilitation robots (ARRs) can offer a wider variety of active and passive training strategies for stroke and fracture patients. This enhances patient recovery outcomes and e...

Additive manufacturing of microneedles: a quality by design approach to clinical translation.

International journal of pharmaceutics
Transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS) offer a painless and non-invasive route of administration but are limited by the skin barrier. Microneedles (MNs) have been shown to overcome this challenge and enable the delivery of small molecules, peptides...

Mobot mobot: an ocean sunfish () robot.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The Ocean Sunfish () has one of the most unusual body geometries and swimming strategies of all fish species. Effectively lacking a caudal fin, these fish propel themselves by synchronized flapping of their extremely long dorsal and anal fins-a form ...

Bioinspired dual soft arm mobile robot with humanoid tactile fingertip sensing and bubble artificial muscles for adaptive obstacle avoidance and object manipulation.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
With the rapid advancements in automation and soft robotics, the exploration of mobile robots for applications in complex environments is increasingly deepening. This paper presents a novel dual soft arm mobile robot (DSAMR), whose design integrates ...
