International Journal of Communication, 2019 This article argues that automobiles can be understood as avatars, or avacars, given the inclusive definition of avatars as mediated (not necessarily digital) representations of human users that facilitate interaction with other users, entities, or ...

Bioinspired Ionochromic Neuromorphic Transistors for Robotic Intelligent Perception
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A bioinspired ionochromic neuromorphic transistor couples synaptic conductance modulation with reversible color change through voltage‐controlled ion doping in P3HT/ion gel, mimicking biological synaptic plasticity, and chameleon‐like color regulation.

A Unifying Thermodynamic Model for Phase Separation and Aging of Biopolymers
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Phase separation and aging of intrinsically disordered proteins are placed in a unifying framework. A thermodynamically consistent time‐dependent version of associating‐polymer theory shows how the processes are intricately coupled. Assuming aging to occur through interacting sites resulting from reversible conformational transitions, the model ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A chlorine‐functionalized silane modifier (CPTMS) is introduced to cooperatively regulate CO2 reduction to C2+ products on Cu‐based catalysts. Dual‐functional interface sequentially enhances CO2 activation, intermediates protonation and C─C coupling, delivering a 5‐fold increase in C2+ faradaic efficiency (FE, 75% vs.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The Gαi1/3 protein is a crucial connecting protein closely related to the signal transduction process of bone formation‐related cytokines such as BMP2. Gαi1/3 mediates downstream signaling pathways such as Smads and MAPK by binding to adaptor proteins like Gab1, thereby promoting the osteogenic effect of BMSCs.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.EndoTac presents a trocar‐compatible endoscopic vision‐based tactile sensor that uses a convex mirror to enlarge side‐facing tactile coverage during minimally invasive vessel palpation. Distorted tactile images are unwarped and processed by a learning model to estimate vascular deformation, enabling sensitive, spatially distributed tactile perception ...

Single‐Sensor Vibration Sensing in Anisotropic Composites Enabled by Disordered Metasurfaces
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This work develops a single‐sensor vibration sensing (SSVS) framework that integrates disordered metasurfaces with compressive sensing. Comprehensive numerical and experimental validations demonstrate that, by manipulating anisotropic guided wave propagation through metasurfaces, the proposed SSVS framework enables high‐fidelity multi‐source vibration ...
