Encoding spatiotemporal asymmetry in artificial cilia with a ctenophore-inspired soft-robotic platform.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Sep 20, 2024
A remarkable variety of organisms use metachronal coordination (i.e. numerous neighboring appendages beating sequentially with a fixed phase lag) to swim or pump fluid. This coordination strategy is used by microorganisms to break symmetry at small s...
PhotoElasticFinger: Robot Tactile Fingertip Based on Photoelastic Effect.
Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Sep 8, 2022
The sense of touch is fundamental for a one-to-one mapping between the environment and a robot that physically interacts with the environment. Herein, we describe a tactile fingertip design that can robustly detect interaction forces given data colle...
Self-Healable, Self-Repairable, and Recyclable Electrically Responsive Artificial Muscles.
Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
Jun 3, 2022
Elastomers with high dielectric permittivity that self-heal after electric breakdown and mechanical damage are important in the emerging field of artificial muscles. Here, a one-step process toward self-healable, silicone-based elastomers with large ...
Bubble casting soft robotics.
Nature
Nov 10, 2021
Inspired by living organisms, soft robots are developed from intrinsically compliant materials, enabling continuous motions that mimic animal and vegetal movement. In soft robots, the canonical hinges and bolts are replaced by elastomers assembled in...
A Novel Pressure-Controlled Revolute Joint with Variable Stiffness.
Soft robotics
Jul 28, 2021
The compliance and deformability of soft robotics allow human-machine interactions in a safe manner without the need of sophisticated control systems inherent in rigid-body robotic devices. However, these advantages introduce controllability and pred...
Negshell casting: 3D-printed structured and sacrificial cores for soft robot fabrication.
PloS one
Jun 12, 2020
Soft robot fabrication by casting liquid elastomer often requires multiple steps of casting or skillful manual labor. We present a novel soft robotic fabrication technique: negshell casting (negative-space eggshell casting), that reduces the steps re...
Toward a new generation of electrically controllable hygromorphic soft actuators.
Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Jan 2, 2015
An innovative processing strategy for fabricating soft structures that possess electric- and humidity-driven active/passive actuation capabilities along with touch- and humidity-sensing properties is reported. The intrinsically multifunctional materi...
[Gentle Method to Elevate Left Liver Lobe in Robot Assisted Gastrectomy].
Gan to kagaku ryoho. Cancer & chemotherapy
Dec 1, 2023
Robot-assisted gastrectomy with the Davinci XiTM has been performed in our department since August 2019. This technique requires elevation of the left liver lobe. In order to prevent perioperative liver injury and expansion of postoperative subcutane...
Using deep learning approaches for coloring silicone maxillofacial prostheses: A comparison of two approaches.
Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society
Jan 1, 2023
AIM: This study aimed to compare the performance of two deep learning algorithms, attention-based gated recurrent unit (GRU), and the artificial neural networks (ANNs) algorithm for coloring silicone maxillofacial prostheses.
Light responsive plasmonic silicone elastomer/hydrogel soft actuator.
Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Jul 1, 2022
Soft robots offer unique advantages in their ability to interact with fragile organisms. Light responsive soft actuators are promising for the development of the untethered soft robots. However, this requires a mechanism for converting the externally...
