BlueGuppy: tunable kinematics enables maneuverability in a minimalist fish-like robot.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Aquatic ecosystems vital to biodiversity and climate change-such as coral reefs, kelp forests, and mangrove forests-are often cluttered with natural obstacles. To navigate these complex habitats, fish have evolved relatively small body sizes and outs...

Learning contact-rich whole-body manipulation with example-guided reinforcement learning.

Science robotics
Humans use diverse skills and strategies to effectively manipulate various objects, ranging from dexterous in-hand manipulation (fine motor skills) to complex whole-body manipulation (gross motor skills). The latter involves full-body engagement and ...

Precise and dexterous robotic manipulation via human-in-the-loop reinforcement learning.

Science robotics
Robotic manipulation remains one of the most difficult challenges in robotics, with approaches ranging from classical model-based control to modern imitation learning. Although these methods have enabled substantial progress, they often require exten...

Design and realization of a low-drive bionic frog robot.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This paper presents the design and fabrication of a compact underdriven bionic frog robot, which is inspired by the locomotion stance of a frog. The robot's hind legs were ingeniously built using an underdriven associative 8-bar linkage mechanism wit...

An artificial intelligence-assisted, kilometer-scale wireless and wearable biochemical sensing platform for monitoring of key biomarkers in urine.

Biosensors & bioelectronics
Wearable biochemical sensors enabling non-invasive monitoring of biomarkers in bodily fluids play a pivotal role in advancing personalized healthcare. The state-of-the-art wireless and wearable biochemical sensors still suffer from large form factors...
