Polymer Fiber Bragg Gratings [PDF]
, 2011 This chapter deals with gratings recorded in polymeric optical fibers (POFs); predominantly those based on poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). We summarize the different mechanical and optical properties of POFs which are relevant to the application of POF Bragg gratings and discuss the existing literature on the subject of the UV photosensitivity of ...

Continuous and Large‐Scale: ELEANOR, the Soft Architected Arm Inspired by the Elephant Trunk
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A large‐scale, architected continuum robot inspired by the macroscopic properties of the African elephant trunk achieves adaptive elephant‐like movements and whole‐body grasping. The results demonstrate that designing from the natural system’s macroscopic properties, rather than prescribing behaviors, provides a powerful strategy for developing ...

Bronchoscope Tip Localization With Learned Airway Constraints and an Open Source Simulator
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.BronchoLoc addresses feature‐poor bronchoscopic imaging by combining monocular video with a preoperative CT graph to estimate 3D camera location. A local tracker identifies candidate branches, while a sequence‐aware global module refines the trajectory. Demonstrating sub‐centimeter accuracy across synthetic and phantom datasets, this framework advances

Shape Sensing, Mapping, and Obstacle Avoidance of the Continuum Manipulator in Confined Environments
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.An integrated sensing framework combines capacitive sensors, IMU, and laser array sensor. The shape reconstruction is finished by backpropagation neural network. Accurate shape estimation (relative error of 1.04%) is maintained under a 110 g tip load, while a miniaturized VL6180X array enables local environmental reconstruction and reactive obstacle ...
