WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

Sparse active‐infrared proximity sensing is coupled to an adaptive thigmotactic controller for camera‐inaccessible object retrieval. After grasping, receptor‐informed encoding transforms force, temperature, and wrist force–torque signals into spike trains for spiking neural network recognition.

Time History Gaussian Process Regression for Modeling the Dynamics of Ankle Exoskeleton User Comfort
Exoskeletons need to be comfortable, but the perception of comfort may change over time. This study investigated if short‐term time history directly influences comfort. No previous trials’ input features were predictive of comfort. Including the previous trial's comfort score marginally improved model accuracy compared to a model using only the current

TacVerse: A Multisensor Dataset and Benchmark for Cross‐Sensor Vision‐Based Tactile Perception
TacVerse provides a controlled benchmark of 106 800 tactile images from seven vision‐based tactile sensors across shape classification, grating classification, and force regression. Direct cross‐sensor transfer reveals substantial sensor‐shift degradation, with grating and force perception more affected than shape recognition.

Dual‐Mode Gripper With Suction and Shape‐Adaptive Freezing Grasps
This study presents a dual‐mode robotic gripper that combines vacuum suction with a shape‐adaptive freezing grasp. The freezing mode uses a compliant rubber membrane, a sprayed water layer, and dry‐ice powder to generate ice‐mediated adhesion while conforming to complex geometries.

Toward Mechanical Intelligence in Robotics
Robots can use their physical bodies to perform functions usually assigned to electronic sensors and controllers. This perspective defines mechanical intelligence through three core operations: filtering inputs, routing mechanical signals, and switching between states.
