Economy of Touch : Task‐Driven Information Selection in Electrical Impedance Tomography‐based Tactile Robotic Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) tactile skins enable multiplexed measurements that trade sensing speed against information richness. This work introduces an economy‐of‐touch framework that treats tactile sensing as an information‐budgeting problem.

A Soft Robotic Jellyfish with Decoupled Actuators for Agile 3D Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a soft robotic jellyfish featuring a functionally decoupled actuation architecture. By separating propulsion, steering, and vertical regulation into independent modules, the robot overcomes conventional coupled‐motion limitations. Utilizing a passive‐valve‐based differential drag strategy and lateral water jets, it achieves agile 3D

Multimodal Quad‐Finger Soft Robotic Hand With Dual‐Chamber Origami Actuator for Large‐Workspace Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multimodal quad‐finger soft robotic hand (QDO hand) uses dual‐chamber straight–curved origami prismatic (SCOP) origami actuators. By coordinating positive and negative pressurization in the two chambers, each finger produces axial extension, contraction and bidirectional bending.

Optimal Walking of an Underactuated Planar Biped with Segmented Torso [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Recently, underactuated bipeds with pointed feet have been studied to achieve dynamic and energy efficient robot walking patterns. However, these studies usually simplify a robot torso as one link, which is different from a human torsos containing 33 ...

Extensions to Reactive Self-Collision Avoidance for Torque and Position Controlled Humanoids

open access: yes, 2011
One of the fundamental demands on robotic systems is a safe interaction with their environment. For fulfilling that condition, both collisions with obstacles and the own structure have to be avoided.

Bio‐inspired artificial retina with receptive fields for in‐sensor multiply‐and‐accumulate operations

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
We developed a bio‐inspired artificial retina in which curved artificial receptive fields composed of perovskite photoconductors perform multiply‐and‐accumulate operations through in‐sensor computing. This architecture simultaneously realized the structural efficiency of human eyes (compact single‐lens imaging system) and functional advantages of ...
