Grounding Large Language Models for Robot Task Planning Using Closed‐Loop State Feedback
BrainBody‐Large Language Model (LLM) introduces a hierarchical, feedback‐driven planning framework where two LLMs coordinate high‐level reasoning and low‐level control for robotic tasks. By grounding decisions in real‐time state feedback, it reduces hallucinations and improves task reliability.

Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.

Synergy of Pd Clusters and TiO2 {101} for Photocatalytic Nonoxidative Coupling of Methane
This study presents photocatalytic nonoxidative coupling of methane over cal‐Pd0.05/TiO2{101}, achieving near 100% selectivity and long‐term stability under mild flow conditions through synergistic single atoms and clusters catalysis. ABSTRACT Photocatalytic nonoxidative coupling of methane (NOCM) offers a sustainable route to valorize CH4 into C2 ...
