An Animation Character Robot That Increases Sales
Applied Sciences, 2022 Performing the role of a shopping assistant is one promising application for social robots. Robot clerks can provide a richer experience for customers and increase sales; however, the scant opportunities for interaction with customers in real shopping ...

From Food to Power: Hydrogel Thermoelectrics for Ingestible Electronics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We introduce a fully edible thermoelectric–electrochromic platform that harvests heat from food and converts it into a visible color change. N‐type and p‐type hydrogel thermoelectric generators connected in series power anthocyanin‐based electrochromic displays, demonstrating the feasibility of safe, biodegradable, ingestible systems for on‐food ...

Cell, 2006 The nuclear protein kinase ATR is a key regulator of genome integrity that functions at checkpoints for damaged or incompletely replicated DNA. In this issue of Cell, Kumagai et al. (2006) shed light on the molecular mechanism that controls ATR. They report that a physical interaction between ATR and a distinct domain of TopBP1 greatly enhances ATR ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A compostable PGS soft surgical robot with interchangeable modules integrates transient Mo tactile and Si thermal sensors for dual feedback. The device preserves its function after clinical‐grade sterilization, demonstrates stable actuation and cardiac tissue grasping with real‐time in vivo pulsatile monitoring, and biodegrades post‐use with soil‐safe,

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Magnetic‐field‐assisted CVD of heterometallic single‐source precursors modulates thin‐film surface electronic structure and interfacial charge transfer. Field‐grown (Cobalt ferrite‐1T)CF‐1T films exhibit stabilized electronic states, lower kinetic barriers, and markedly enhanced nitrate‐to‐ammonia electrocatalysis versus (Cobalt ferrite‐0T) CF‐0T ...

Constrained Multiple Model Particle Filtering for Bearings-Only Maneuvering Target Tracking
IEEE Access, 2018 This paper presents an effective constrained multiple model particle filtering (CMMPF) for bearings-only maneuvering target tracking. In the proposed algorithm, the process of target tracking is factorized into two sub-problems: 1) motion model ...

Pharmacological Inhibition of ATR Can Block Autophagy through an ATR-Independent Mechanism
iScience, 2020 Inhibition of the ATR kinase has emerged as a therapeutically attractive means to target cancer since the development of potent inhibitors, which are now in clinical testing. We investigated a potential link between ATR inhibition and the autophagy process in esophageal cancer cells using four ATR inhibitors including two in clinical testing.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A sulfur‐doped Ni–Co heterostructured catalyst is rationally designed to regulate interfacial electronic and adsorption properties for selective glycerol electrooxidation. The synergistic Ni–Co active sites promote hydroxide activation and glycerol adsorption, enabling efficient formic acid production and durable hydrogen generation under continuous ...

Gait synchronisation in pedestrian dyads: The influence of social interaction [PDF]
EPJ Web of ConferencesSpontaneous gait synchronisation is commonly observed in pedestrian groups and has been studied extensively in controlled settings. Here, we investigate this phenomenon in a natural environment using a pedestrian trajectory dataset collected with range ...
