Spring and Power in Hovering Ornithopters

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Only small ornithopters can hover, longest at the hummingbird size. This article reviews the drive and power of these hovering machines, focusing on elastic energy and thrust boosters. Unlike two‐winged designs, X‐winged and multiple‐V‐winged ornithopters benefit from lower disk loading and slower, smaller wingbeats, and the clap‐and‐fling effect ...

Bioinspired Tactile Object Identification Leveraging Deep Learning and Soft Body Compliance

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

Liquid Metal Sloshing for High‐Load Active Self‐Healing System: An Application to Tendon‐Driven Legged Robot

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Liquid metal “sloshing” by the robot's own actuator is proposed to improve the self‐healing performance. The proposed method drastically enhances the healed strength by decomposing the surface oxides and the impurities. The method contributes to the world's first demonstration of active self‐healing behavior performed by a life‐sized legged robot. Self‐
