A Quadruped Piezoelectric Ultrasonic Actuating Robot with Foot‐Leg‐Trunk‐Integrated Structure
This study proposes a novel foot‐leg‐trunk‐integrated quadruped piezoelectric ultrasonic actuating robot with small size and lightweight. A hybrid vibration mode combining the first‐order out‐of‐plane bending vibration of the trunk and the first‐order horizontal bending vibration of driving legs is designed to generate elliptical trajectories at foot ...

Recent Advances in Variable‐Stiffness Robotic Systems Enabled by Phase‐Change Materials
Phase‐change materials (PCMs), such as shape memory alloys, hydrogels, shape memory polymers, liquid crystal elastomers, and low‐melting‐point alloys, are driving advancements in stiffness‐tunable robotic systems across a wide range of applications. This review highlights recent progress in PCM‐enabled robotics, focusing on their underlying mechanisms,

3D Elastomeric Kirigami for Passively Stretchable Fully Soft Vacuum‐Powered Artificial Muscles
The creation of purely soft, passively stretchable artificial muscles has long been a hot topic in robotics research. Here, we present a design approach involving the extension of 2D kirigami to 3D elastomeric kirigami structures. In a biomimetic demonstration of the human upper arm, this approach successfully simulated the driving mechanism ...
