Portable Autonomous Window Cleaning Robot
Procedia Computer Science, 2018 The idea of having a compact and autonomous office or house window cleaning robot is quite simple and very attractive. This small window climbing robot with pneumatic suction cups should be able to move autonomously along an outside surface of high-rise building office window with a relatively large area and meantime clean and wash it.

Directed Exploration using a Modified Distance Transform [PDF]
, 2005 Mobile robots operating in unknown environments need to build maps. To do so they must have an exploration algorithm to plan a path. This algorithm should guarantee that the whole of the environment, or at least some designated area, will be mapped.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.MXene dervied CoFe composites show increased initial Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) activity compared to the pure CoFe and MXene in an Anion Exchange Membrane device. Vanadium vacancies in the MXene plays a role in increased OER activity and hinders Fe leaching in the AEM device over using the pure V2C MXene as a support material for the CoFe ...

Micropatterned Biphasic Printed Electrodes for High‐Fidelity on‐Skin Bioelectronics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Micropatterned biphasic printed electrodes achieve unprecedented skin conformity and low impedance by combining liquid‐metal droplets with microstructured 3D lattices. This scalable approach enables high‐fidelity detection of ECG, EMG, and EEG signals, including alpha rhythms from the forehead, with long‐term comfort and stability.
