Gecko‐Inspired Adhesive Grasping from Convex to Flat Surfaces with Contact Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A gecko‐inspired adhesive gripper with a pair of soft hierarchical bio‐toes and a bionic rolling module is designed for adaptive grasping from convex to flat surfaces. Integrated adhesive contact sensing enables the smart grabbing of complex items. The gripper exhibits adaptability, load‐bearing capacity, and potential for applications in industries ...

Design, Modeling, and Control of a Soft Robotic Diaphragm‐Assist Device in a Respiratory Simulator

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A soft robotic diaphragm‐assist device using fabric‐based pneumatic actuators with a 2‐step control system to optimize synchronization and support is introduced. This system can detect the initiation of breathing to trigger assistance and regulate pressures to provide the correct level of inhalation augmentation. Validation and testing are completed on

Treecreeper Drone: Adaptive Mechanism for Passive Tree Trunk Perching

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Taking inspiration from treecreepers, a passively triggered aerial robot that can reliably perch on vertical tree trunks is presented. The friction‐based approach combines a microspine array with a tail‐like support, and then validates via dynamic analyses and flight experiments, ensuring stable performance across trunk diameters and bark textures ...
