FEWT: Frequency‐Enhanced Wavelet‐Based Transformer for Multimodal Wheeled Bimanual Manipulation

SmartBot, EarlyView.
An embodied mobile bimanual robot learns dexterous manipulation skills through imitation learning with multimodal perception. The integration of vision, proprioception, and tactile sensing establishes a comprehensive perception–action loop, enabling the robot to continuously understand, interact with, and adapt to complex physical environments.

Wind Instrument Playing Humanoid Robots

, 2011
Since the golden era of automata (17th and 18th centuries), the development of mechanical dolls served as a mean to understand how the human brain is able of coordinating multiple degrees of freedom in order to play musical instruments.

An Ergonomic Customizable Soft Robotic Glove Toward Personalized Hand Rehabilitation

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Soft robotic gloves for hand rehabilitation are often limited by poor fit and uneven pressure on the fingers. Here, the authors report an ergonomic all‐fabric glove whose dual‐action actuators are tailored to individual finger geometry by CNC heat sealing, with symmetrical chambers that distribute interface pressure more evenly. Weighing only 90 g, the
