A Miniature Rotary Electrostatic Clutch for Assigning Multi‐Degrees of Freedom to Insect‐Scale Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Insect‐scale crawling robots can traverse confined environments; nevertheless, their functionalities are predominantly restricted to sensing because of challenges in integrating actuated degrees of freedom. Herein, a miniature rotary electrostatic clutch is presented by incorporating cutting patterns in the clutch layer.

Digital Point‐of‐Care Testing Device Based on Bioluminescent Pyrophosphate in Real‐Time and Recombinase‐aid Amplification

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A point‐of‐care testing method based on solvent‐responsive magnetic beads suitable for large‐area diagnosis and mutation screening in remote areas was developed to detect it by combining bioluminescenct pyrophosphate in real‐time technology and recombinase‐aid amplification technology.

Planning and Control Framework for a Quadruped Robot With Changeable Configuration

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Multiconfiguration quadruped robots enhance adaptability by switching between mammal‐like and reptile‐like morphologies. This study presents a nonlinear constraint‐based motion planner integrated with a hierarchical whole‐body controller, enabling robust configuration switching and locomotion on complex terrains. Experiments on slopes, irregular bricks,

Drought impact on ground beetle assemblages (Coleoptera, Carabidae) in Norway spruce forests with different management after windstorm damage – a case study from Tatra Mts. (Slovakia)

Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2017
After the windstorm of November 2004, the ground beetle assemblages (Coleoptera, Carabidae) differentiated after the windstorm into four groups reflecting degree of damaging and forestry management (intact stand, fallen timber in situ, extracted timber ...

Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

Sub‐Micrometer‐Precision Path Following of Piezo‐Actuated Mobile Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article reports on the Holonomic‐Beetle (HB), a palm‐sized robot that achieves sub‐micrometer (sub‐µm) precision path tracking across spatial ranges from 100 µm to 10 mm. Using proportional‐integral‐derivative (PID) control, the HB accurately tracks both complex and straight paths with sub‐µm path errors, surpassing existing robots.
