Nonreciprocal Swarmalators With Reconfigurable and Controllable Formations for Robot Collectives

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Nonreciprocal swarmalator interactions are enabled through control barrier functions to transform self‐organizing robot collectives into reconfigurable, constraint‐aware systems. Complex two‐ and three‐dimensional shapes, continuous morphing, obstacle‐aware navigation, collective splitting, and object transport emerge from modulating agent‐level ...

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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

Shear‐Isolating Actuation System for Exosuit Using Movable Pulley With Webbing‐Driven Mechanism

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Tendon‐driven exosuits can chafe the skin because the moving tendon slides against the wearer. A shear‐isolating actuation system combining a movable pulley with flat‐profile webbing keeps the body‐contacting tendon layer stationary, relocating relative motion away from the skin. The compact 145‐g actuator delivers 150 N of assistance, and benchtop and

Model Predictive Control for Magnetically Actuated Cellbots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Magnetically actuated cellbots, formed by embedding microrobots in living cells, are steered along precise paths using a model predictive controller enhanced with a Gaussian process disturbance estimator. The data‐efficient method calibrates each cellbot individually, cutting modeling error by roughly 60% and enabling accurate navigation through cell ...

Augmentation Index Association With Reactive Hyperemia as Assessed by Peripheral Arterial Tonometry in Hypertension.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hypertension, 2011
BACKGROUND: Augmentation pressure has emerged as a surrogate marker for cardiovascular disease, and endothelial dysfunction has been proposed as related factor.
