Decreasing the Cost of Morphing in Adaptive Morphogenetic Robots
Shape‐morphing propulsive limbs enhance locomotion across land‐to‐water transitions, but prior designs rely on thermally responsive components, coupling performance to environmental temperature. This study introduces a pressure‐responsive mechanism that reduces morphing energy costs, enables rapid transitions, and minimizes failure modes.

Soft Robots Proprioception Through Stretchable Laser‐Induced Graphene Strain Sensors
This study demonstrates the potential of laser‐induced graphene and silicone sensors for soft pneumatic grippers’ proprioception. The sensors are thin, stretchable, mechanically transparent, and easy to integrate. Finite‐element method analysis identifies the finger's neutral bending plane and four sensor positions are tested to validate the ...

Liquid metal “sloshing” by the robot's own actuator is proposed to improve the self‐healing performance. The proposed method drastically enhances the healed strength by decomposing the surface oxides and the impurities. The method contributes to the world's first demonstration of active self‐healing behavior performed by a life‐sized legged robot. Self‐

A compressed sensing (CS)‐based feature selection method is proposed to select the most informative elements in the radiomic features extracted from medical images of personalized ultra‐fractionated stereotactic adaptive treatment. The CS‐based approach is able to simplify the feature selection process and enhance the accuracy and robustness of a ...
