Toward Perception‐Native Electronic Skin: Bio‐Inspired In‐/Near‐Sensor and Neuromorphic Computing for Humanoid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Dense tactile streams from across the humanoid body converge on collide in a central wiring and data bottleneck. By relocating computation closer to and then into the skin itself, near‐ and in‐sensor architectures, together with neuromorphic computing, chart a path toward perception‐native electronic skin, in which the conversion of stimulus into ...

Nonlinear Discrete Observer for Flexibility Compensation of Industrial Robots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper demonstrates the solutions of digital observer implementation for industrial applications. A nonlinear high-gain discrete observer is proposed to compensate the tracking error due to the flexibility of robot manipulators. The proposed discrete

Programmable Crack Networks for Wide‐Range and Reversible Strain Sensing in Vertically Oriented van der Waals Molybdenum Disulfide Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Vertically oriented van der Waals MoS2 thin films enable a mechanically programmable crack network for strain sensing. The initial mechanical programming protocol establishes a programmed crack configuration along weak interlayer and interdomain interfaces.

Delay-dependent H∞ control of linear discrete-time systems with an interval-like time-varying delay

open access: yes, 2008
The free-weighting-matrix approach is developed to study the H control of linear discrete-time systems with an interval-like time-varying delay. First, a delay- and range-dependent criterion for a given H performance is derived.

NGMV control of delayed piecewise affine systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A Nonlinear Generalized Minimum Variance (NGMV) control algorithm is introduced for the control of piecewise affine (PWA) systems. Under some conditions, discrete-time PWA systems can be transferred into an equivalent state-dependent nonlinear system ...

Unlocking Terahertz Steganography: Authentication of Hidden Images in Flexible Media

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hidden information in multilayered devices, such as steganographic portraits, is detected and authenticated using reflection‐mode terahertz time‐domain imaging. Image reconstruction relies on a dedicated figure‐of‐merit obtained by integrating the signal intensity over the time‐window associated with the reflection from the metallic mirror backing the ...

Biodegradable and Edible Milli‐Fluidic Logic Circuits

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Fully biodegradable and edible fluidic circuits are developed using gelatin‐based valves that operate at low pressure. Logic gates, a one‐bit memory, and a ring oscillator are demonstrated, showing that biodegradable materials can perform computation and control.

Numerical computation of characteristic roots for delay differential equations

open access: yes, 2002
In the paper methods for computing characteristic roots for Delay Differential Equations with fixed discrete delay are investigated. Two different approaches are presented based on different schemes of approximations applied to the equation restated as ...

Spatial Stiffness Programming in Single‐Filament Material Extrusion Through Data‐Driven Thermal Foaming

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Single‐filament material extrusion enables spatial stiffness programming through locally controlled thermal foaming of TPU. A data‐driven G‐code framework tunes porosity from 15.7% to 40.7% and hardness from 90 to 63 Shore A within and across layers. Monolithic hands and soft actuators consequently achieve distinct programmed motions without material ...

High‐Density Magnetomyography With Optical Magnetometers Reveals Spatiotemporal Patterns of Evoked Muscle Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Optically pumped magnetometers are employed to contactlessly map the spatiotemporal dynamics of the magnetic field linked to electrical activity of a skeletal muscle in vivo. It is demonstrated that localization of the clinically relevant innervation zone is feasible using this non‐invasive magnetic measurement modality. ABSTRACT Magnetomyography (MMG)
