An unexpected occurrence of subsoil krotovinas in southwest Germany

open access: yesDiscover Soil
The accumulation of soil organic matter (SOM) and intensive bioturbation, which may become evident by krotovinas, characterize soils with a mollic/chernic horizon.

Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard): An Aerial Robotic Swarm for Autonomous Detection and Entrapment of Rogue Multirotors

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard) is introduced as a four‐drone swarm that autonomously detects, tracks, and safely captures rogue drones using a coordinated net system. Computer vision and leader–follower control architecture enable synchronized enclosure, while integrated failsafes enhance system reliability. Validated through closed‐environment
