A Bio‐Functional Mimetic Robot for Versatile Tasks From Cross‐Scale Manipulation to Limb‐Tool Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A functionally biomimetic design methodology is presented, enabling a single robot to perform eight distinct functions and manipulate objects across a size range exceeding 2300‐fold. The robot exceeds basic human hand functions and demonstrates remote operation, multi‐object manipulation, humanoid‐robot hand interaction, and narrow‐space inspection ...

HD‐tDCS Restores Perivascular AQP4 Polarization via PPARγ Modulation to Enhance Glymphatic Clearance After Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
HD‐tDCS promotes recovery after intracerebral hemorrhage by enhancing PPARγ‐dependent astrocyte remodeling in a mouse model of ICH. This process suppresses proinflammatory astrocytic activation, restores perivascular AQP4 repolarization, and improves glymphatic influx and efflux, thereby facilitating hematoma and perihematomal edema clearance and ...

A Rigid–Foldable Kirigami‐Inspired Metamorphic Mechanism With Programmable Motion Modes and Self‐Locking

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Geometric constraint reconfiguration enables a rigid–foldable kirigami‐inspired mechanism to switch between twisting, directional translation, and self‐locking states. By encoding multifunctionality directly into its architecture, the mechanism achieves multimodal motion and passive locking without reassembly, providing a compact platform for adaptive ...

Stochastic Entanglement of Deterministic Origami Tentacles For Robust Robotic Grasping

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces an origami tentacle gripper to robustly grasp objects‐in air, underwater, and even in orbital space‐by exploiting a synergy between local, deterministic deformation programming and global, stochastic entanglements. A single origami tentacle can be designed to coil with a simple tendon pull.

High‐Entropy Engineering and External Magnetic Field Modulation Synergistically Enhance the H2S Sensing Performance of Rare‐Earth Perovskite Ferrites

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel high‐entropy perovskite oxide, (Gd0.2Tb0.2Dy0.2Ho0.2Er0.2)FeO3, was successfully synthesized for advanced hydrogen sulfide gas detection. By synergistically coupling high‐entropy‐induced local lattice distortion with weak magnetic field modulation, the tailored material generates abundant active sites. This innovative dual strategy dramatically

Developing Soft Interconnected Microchannel Network for 2D Skin‐Like Actuator

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A soft interconnected network of microchannels is proposed to develop new pneumatic actuators for future bio‐inspired soft robots. Simultaneous stimulation of this network generates regional asymmetric strains in walls of microchannels whose interaction across the entire surface leads to bending curvatures in multidimensions.
