Autonomous Navigation of Pollen‐Inspired Magnetic Microrobots for Biomedical Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A sunflower pollen‐inspired magnetic microrobot enables controlled rolling navigation in vessel‐like environments. Its open geometry reduces hydrodynamic drag, while vision‐based closed‐loop control, shortest‐path planning, and reinforcement learning support target‐reaching and maze navigation with microrobot‐scale accuracy, highlighting a route toward

Time History Gaussian Process Regression for Modeling the Dynamics of Ankle Exoskeleton User Comfort

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Exoskeletons need to be comfortable, but the perception of comfort may change over time. This study investigated if short‐term time history directly influences comfort. No previous trials’ input features were predictive of comfort. Including the previous trial's comfort score marginally improved model accuracy compared to a model using only the current

A Pentaradial and Bilateral Combined Photoreception System in the Sea Cucumber is Mediated by a Blue Light‐Sensitive R‐Opsin

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota detects blue and adjacent wavelengths of light via an r‐opsin with a maximum absorption at 459 nm. In the oral tentacles, papillae, and tube feet, distinct light‐sensing structures with specialized morphologies are formed, constituting a unique pentaradial and bilateral combined photoreception system.
