A Miniature Rotary Electrostatic Clutch for Assigning Multi‐Degrees of Freedom to Insect‐Scale Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Insect‐scale crawling robots can traverse confined environments; nevertheless, their functionalities are predominantly restricted to sensing because of challenges in integrating actuated degrees of freedom. Herein, a miniature rotary electrostatic clutch is presented by incorporating cutting patterns in the clutch layer.

BeeRootBot: A Bioinspired Robotic Probe Exhibiting Apical Growth through In Situ Soil Binding

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel method for consolidating subterranean exploration pathways in plant‐inspired robots by binding in‐situ soil with beeswax, a biobased material. This simultaneous advancement and wall‐lining process reduces penetration resistance, enhances exploration efficiency, enables communication and resource sharing, and promotes ...

Selection maintains floral color polymorphism in scarlet paintbrush, Castilleja coccinea, reflecting combined ecological factors

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Evolutionary theory predicts polymorphism should be rare; however, intraspecific variation in floral color is common and can be attributed to genetic drift, plasticity, or variable selection. Examining floral color polymorphism both within contact zones and across a species' range can reveal the mechanisms maintaining this variation ...
