Woven, In‐Air, Textile Actuators by Conjugated Polymers and Solid‐State Electrolyte Tape Yarns
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Herein, the concept of fabric actuators with trilayer tape yarns is reported. The tape yarns consist of conjugated polymer layers and ionogel, as an ion reservoir, enabling actuation in‐air. Using textile techniques to create actuators offer many advantages, such as parallel assembly for increased force output, conductive yarns for electrical control ...

Bioinspired Tactile Object Identification Leveraging Deep Learning and Soft Body Compliance
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Herein, it is demonstrated that a soft robotic hand, integrated with low‐resolution tactile sensors, can effectively identify a variety of objects with high accuracy by combining multi‐grasp information. Central to this approach is the development of ROSE‐Net, a specialized neural network designed to harness the data from multiple grasps.

Winter treatments against the woolly apple aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum): products and timing of applications [PDF]
, 2008 In organic apple growing the woolly apple aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum) is still an unsolved problem. Various approaches to use beneficial insects were not really effective. Only winter treatments with mineral oils showed partial and fluctuating success.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.In this study, an optoelectronic memristor with integrated light/humidity bimodal sensing, memory, and processing functionalities is proposed. A proof of concept sensory–motion system with attention‐driven and relative humidity‐modulated behaviors is presented by sending the synaptic feedback of the memristor to a robot arm.
