A paradigm shift in spatial experience design through the integration of 4D Art and landscape architecture in the AI era

Journal of Design Practice in the Built Environment
This study critically examines how the integration of 4D Art and landscape architecture in the AI era is transforming the paradigm of spatial experience design, and discusses its transitional patterns and future directions for landscape design. It first reviews the evolving trajectory of landscape spatial experience in the AI era, then derives the ...

Push the Limits: Human‐Like Multimodal Extreme Embodied Intelligence for Autonomous Racing

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Autonomous racing tests embodied intelligence under extreme control limits of speed, actuation, and decision‐making. Inspired by human multimodality, we present Apex, an embodied agent deployed on a super‐formula racing car at Yas Marina. Integrating physics‐informed perception, multimodal learning, and tasking, Apex cuts lap times by 15% and achieves ...

FiN‐Kiri: Fabric‐Based Inflatable Kirigami Actuator for Multimodal Soft Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study introduces a type of inflatable fabric‐based kirigami actuator capable of performing bending motion. The actuator is utilized as soft grippers, a crawling robot and a swimming robot. The crawling robot demonstrated extraordinary motion capabilities, such as moving forward, turning and navigating a narrow tunnel.

A Digital 4D Information System on the World Scale: Research Challenges, Approaches, and Preliminary Results

Applied Sciences
Numerous digital media repositories have been set up during recent decades, each containing plenty of data about historic cityscapes. In contrast, digital 3D reconstructions of no longer extant cityscapes have so far almost solely been performed for ...

Distributed Micropneumatic Sensors for Soft Robots to Detect Touch and Pose

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Soft robots need integrated touch and pose sensing for safe and reliable operation. This work presents a three‐fingered soft gripper with 18 micropneumatic sensors made from the same materials as its pneumatic actuators. By measuring airflow resistance changes in deforming microchannels of the sensors, finger pose and contact are detected, enabling ...

XeraBorg: Neural Control of Tail‐Flick Escape for Backward Propulsion in Cyborg Crayfish

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents the first controlled tail‐flick propulsion method for the cyborg Cherax quadricarinatus. Comprehensive experiments establish a foundational framework for using the crayfish's natural escape mechanism as a locomotion strategy, expanding its potential as an underwater and amphibious mobile robot.

Photonic Time Crystals and Time‐Varying Electromagnetic Metamatter: A New Direction for Ultrafast Tunable Photonic and Microwave Materials and Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Photonic time crystals (PTCs) are systems in which electromagnetic parameters are modulated periodically in time, producing momentum bandgaps via temporal scattering rather than spatial Bragg processes. This review examines the theoretical frameworks, modeling, and computational tools for time‐varying media, and summarizes experimental demonstrations ...

The value of 4-dimensional hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography in predicting the possibility of spontaneous conception in infertile women

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
Background Some infertile women can undergo spontaneous conception after 4-dimensional hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (4D-HyCoSy). However, advised period of expectant management after HyCoSy for different tubal patency was rarely recorded.

An Adipocyte MKK3–p38β Axis Preserves Insulin Responsiveness in Mice and Is Reciprocally Altered in Human Obesity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The adipocyte MKK3–p38β axis emerges as an adaptive stress‐response pathway during obesity. Human visceral adipose tissue analyses, adipocyte‐specific mouse models, and primary adipocytes show that the MKK3–p38β axis supports insulin responsiveness by restraining p70S6K‐dependent inhibitory IRS1 feedback and preserving AKT–GLUT4 signaling. This pathway
