Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

Multimodal Human–Robot Interaction Using Human Pose Estimation and Local Large Language Models
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A multimodal human–robot interaction framework integrates human pose estimation (HPE) and a large language model (LLM) for gesture‐ and voice‐based robot control. Speech‐to‐text (STT) enables voice command interpretation, while a safety‐aware arbitration mechanism prioritizes gesture input for rapid intervention.

Efficient and Robust Standing Postures of Quadruped Robots
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A calibrated static framework estimates load, optimizes torques, and adapts posture so quadruped robots stand efficiently and robustly under external payloads, achieving up to 50% lower torque demand. Inspired by the natural posture adjustments of animals under external loading, this article presents an optimization‐based framework for minimizing joint

Effect of Leg Length Discrepancy to the Hip Function on Post Hemiarthroplasty Patients in Jember
Journal of Agromedicine and Medical Sciences (AMS), 2017 Hip fractures in elderly patient are often treated with hemiarthroplasty. Hemiarthroplasty can cause various complications, one of which is leg legth descrepancy (LLD). The function of the hip joint is reduced due to these complications. Previous studies
