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 ...
Artificial musculoskeletal systems mimic mammalian biomechanics using antagonistic muscles and rigid skeletons. They offer benefits such as adjustable stiffness, back-drivability, and muscle failure tolerance but are difficult to model and control du...
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...
Accurately identifying social bot accounts is the key to preventing the use of artificial intelligence technology to forge social accounts, which can interfere with public opinion and thus cause public opinion crises. However, at present, relying onl...
Individuals with eating disorders (ED) and co-occurring post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) often face difficulties with sensory overload and emotion regulation (ER), which can make treatment more complex. Assistive devices that offer real-time sup...
Aiming at the problems of blind sampling points and slow planning speed of path planning Rapidly-exploring Random Trees algorithm, an effective region sampling Levy Rapidly-exploring Random Trees algorithm (LRRT*) is proposed based on the improved Le...
Reinforcement learning (RL) has demonstrated significant potential in social robot autonomous navigation, yet existing research lacks in-depth discussion on the feasibility of navigation strategies. Therefore, this paper proposes an Integrated Decisi...
BACKGROUND: Sedentary lifestyles can lead to musculoskeletal disorders, but proper sitting posture, particularly maintaining a slight anterior pelvic tilt, helps prevent issues like lower back pain and spinal misalignment. Samsung Electronics wearabl...
Concurrent developments in robotic design and natural language processing (NLP) have enabled the production of humanoid chatbots that can operate in commercial and community settings. Though still novel, the presence of physically embodied social rob...
Stick insects exhibit remarkable adaptive walking capabilities across diverse environments; however, the mechanisms underlying their gait transitions remain poorly understood. Although reinforcement learning (RL) has been employed to generate insect-...
