Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance of Metamorphic Microrobots Using Concentric Sector Navigator

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Metamorphic magnetic microrobots are navigated using a concentric sector navigator for dynamic obstacle avoidance in both microroller and swarm states. After microroller transport, citrate‐triggered dissolution releases nanoparticles that reassemble into a controllable swarm.

Reconfigurable Design and Optimization‐Based Control of an Integrated Leg‐Arm Robot for Space Applications With an Underactuated Body

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A quadrupedal integrated leg‐arm robot with an underactuated reconfigurable body is developed. By using a Sarrus mechanism as the body, the robot enables reconfiguration through its supporting limbs, achieving mode switching without additional actuators.

Accounting for Pairwise Heterogeneity in Bilateral Trade Flows: A Stochastic Varying Coefficient Gravity Model [PDF]

This paper suggests an alternative way for estimating the gravity equation that takes into consideration country-pair heterogeneity in bilateral trade flows. Specifically, a stochastic varying coefficient gravity model based on Hildreth and Houck’s (1968)

Motion and Morphology Planning for Autonomous Manipulation in Clutter With a Shape‐Shifting, Variable‐Stiffness Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A hybrid mobile robot with a modular Variable‐Stiffness Bridge transitions between a rigid locomotion platform and a flexible, shape‐conforming body. By enclosing objects within its deformable structure rather than relying on dedicated end effectors, the robot achieves orientation‐regulated planar transport, with conformal contact quality shown to ...

Contact Force Estimation in Human–Robot Collaboration: A Case Study on Heavyweight Robotic Manipulators

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The method presented in this paper provides a practical sensorless solution for estimating both contact force and contact location using only standard joint encoders and an available robot dynamic model. By reformulating the contact estimation problem using a single scalar equivalent contact parameter, the approach enables fast and robust computation ...

Multirobot Aerial Soft Manipulator for Floating Litter Collection

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multirobot aerial manipulator enables autonomous floating litter collection by controlling the shape of a flexible rope equipped with a hook‐based tool. Adaptive rope‐shape planning enhances grasping performance while reducing tension, demonstrating the potential of aerial robots for floating litter removal. Removing floating litter from water bodies

A Cable‐Driven Parallel Wire Robot for Probe Positioning and Tissue Palpation on Curved Phantoms

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A wearable cable‐driven parallel robot is introduced for autonomous ultrasound probe positioning and soft tissue palpation on curved surfaces. By combining visual feedback with tension‐optimized control, the system achieves millimeter‐scale positioning accuracy while enforcing safety force constraints.
