Smart Bioinspired Material‐Based Actuators: Current Challenges and Prospects
This work gathers, in a review style, an extensive and comprehensive literature overview on the development of autonomous actuators based on synthetic materials, bringing together valuable knowledge from several studies. Furthermore, the article identifies the fundamental principles of actuation mechanisms and defines key parameters to address the size

Inspired by the Mexican jumping bean, this study presents a centimeter‐scale, electronics‐free robot that merges principles from both the animal and plant kingdoms. A thermo‐responsive actuator mimicking larval motion, enclosed within a uniquely shaped plant‐seed‐inspired shell, generates jumping, rolling, flipping, sliding, and climbing through ...

Multirobot Aerial Soft Manipulator for Floating Litter Collection
A multirobot aerial manipulator enables autonomous floating litter collection by controlling the shape of a flexible rope equipped with a hook‐based tool. Adaptive rope‐shape planning enhances grasping performance while reducing tension, demonstrating the potential of aerial robots for floating litter removal. Removing floating litter from water bodies

This study assesses the suitability and performance of single‐image super‐resolution methods when applied directly, and without any fine‐tuning, to multispectral images of maize and sunflower crops. It evaluates not only super‐resolution performance, but also the preservation of spectral integrity and vegetation‐index reliability. Multispectral imagery

Multimodal Mixed Reality for In‐Field Visualization of RGB‐Based Vegetation Indices
Evaluating crop physiological health in field environments remains constrained by offline data processing or static 2D displays, limiting real‐time spatial interpretation. This paper presents a novel mixed reality framework that calculates, normalizes, and visualizes 20 RGB‐based vegetation indices directly in agricultural fields using consumer‐grade ...
